Re: bad connection

Hi rongtw,
I've just ran some checks and I can't see anything obvious. Try some of the things below. Also make sure you have no other programs running in the background.
[quote=slow speed help page]Viruses and Spyware can slow down your computer and subsequently your download speeds. There are a number of programs (such as Plusnet Protect) which can help you find and remove these from your system. Run a full virus scan to make sure your computer is ok.
If you can, try a different router or modem on your line. If this fixes the problem, your hardware is faulty and needs replacing (if you got it from us in the last 12 months, contact us for a free replacement).
If you've followed all the advice here and your speeds are still low, please use the Broadband Troubleshooter to report the problem

Re: bad connection

It's more likely that you'd lose connection altogether if either was the case rather than a drop in speeds. If you've raised a fault I'm sure we'll be able to get to the bottom of it.
