Hi
The other thread is getting a bit congested and will be a bit hard for the Plusnet Digital Care Team to follow.
The purpose of this thread is for people to provide specific information about their peak time speed problems so that the Plusnet staff can use to check against their monitoring data and raise it with their suppliers. Please do not use it as a discussion thread - there's already a separate thread for that here http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,124744.0.html
The Plusnet Exchange Problem page is here - http://community.plus.net/exchange-information/ (new exchanges and information are being added all the time)
Could you please post the following information (if available):
Exchange Name: Bradwell Abbey (SMBA)
If you do not already know your exchange, you can find it from putting in your phone number or address http://www.dslchecker.bt.com or http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange_search
Description of when the problem is occurring and if it affecting specific things like iPlayer, Netflix, Sky Go:
iPlayer and Sky Go unusable, continually buffering from 20:00 - 22:00.
Speedtest.net ** If possible, try to run the speed tests via a wired ethernet connection **
If you go to http://speedtest.net and run their test. When the test is complete, click on "Share Result", choose 'image' and copy/paste the image in here.
ThinkBroadband Speed Test
The test can be found at http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest.html?utm_source=mainsite&utm_medium=navigation&utm_campaign=... Once the test is complete, copy the "Direct Graph Button" link and paste it as a image here.
ThinkBroadband Ping Monitor:
If you have a TBB Ping Monitor, please could you share a live graph and specific days (with dates) you are seeing packet loss or increased evening pings.
Any other information:
If you have any other information which you think might be important, please also share it. This could be something like a neighbour with another ISP like BT Infinity is also experiencing peak time slow downs.
