Poor speeds on pro this afternoon

[#1]

Usenet speeds very variable this afternoon , down to 80kB/s at times - on "unknown" gateway. Going to try changing gateway and see what that does.
Edit: Hmm is there a problem with the gateway tool, tried disconnecting and reconnecting and still showing "unknown gateway"

That could mean you reconnected to the same gateway. If you do a trace route to ntp.plus.net the second hop (pcl-ag03?) will identify your gateway.
