Well, I did some digging, and it turns out there are other users, with other isp's a few of whom this morning get 740Kbytes/sec... whilst i got an impressive 180Kbytes/sec... their pings 40ms~ mine 120ms~
Now I sync at 8Meg, Solidly, and have been assigned an exchange profile of 7150 and a pn profile of 7000kbps...
So whats the story?
Scott
P.s. Cheers for checking if there was a cease on my line James

I've done various checks on your line in the past and none seem to indicate that there's a problem at all. Raising a fault to BT would result in BT sending the fault back to us saying that the service is within limits.
I take it the poor speed and latency is only during peak times?

Those have been our busier gateways over the last 48 hours with the others having barely any gold drops at all.

Bear in mind its the line belonging to dscentral, not mcgurka, or dscentral2
Edit> Currently connected to thn-ag3, but have been on Ag1, and city lifeline all with the same problems.

I'll get someone to have a play around with your Ellacoya profile to see if it makes any difference.

Did you ever try your RIN connection to see if it made any difference?

You said you were going to try out a new router so I've avoided Ellacoya changes.
Does sound like it could be exchange related though.

1. Something local - MTU tweaking no longer optimum or a specific line problem.
2. Contention on one exchange VP and not another. Bear in mind, all users on the same exchange are not served by the same capacity, and it is perfectly normal where there is exchange contention for it to only affect some users.
All I can say for sure is if the problem is apparent on RIN too, it bypasses our network entirely so it does back-up one of the above two things I guess.

I know for 2mb products, specifically business, if the line rate was not above a certain rate (1Mbit) for greater than 90% of the time... it is classed as as fault, and can be booked, regardless of contention...
So what is the absolute maximum 90% slow speed for a business line, synching at 8megs? and dont tell me its 400kbit.
