Who's internet connection has been affected?

[Flisker]

Hey,

Due to the snow loads of exchanges and connections have become slow or even lost. I want to know whose connection here has become slow?

Post your speedtest result and your ISP with the 'up-to' speed your paying for :)
ONLY IF YOUR INTERNET SPEED HAS REDUCED DRAMATICALLY

Mine has been affected, but not by the snow. Ever since VM launched their 50MB service last week I have noticed high page loading times.

o2 Home Broadband - 8MB

If you read around Be Forums, yours isnt due to snow theres been speed and latency issues for ages because core links are down/overloaded. They rerouted traffic and again the links are down. Been going on for a month or two. As you know o2 uses Be's network.

Nothing to do with snow :)

I have been disconnecting frequently over the weekend, a reboot will solve this but it's rather tedious and annoying.

Both download and upload have been almost halved.

Low pings are good though I think and it seems quite low.

My has only started working like 30min ago slowww..

[habtasia]

I should be disconnecting frequently according to o2 but my trusty N1 Vision router is keeping me connected and providing me fast speeds :D

I reccoment the N1 Vision to people who like fast internet connections like me :)

[Agnostic Bear]

No issues for me, probably cause I'm not on the same network as the rest of the Virgin people :8

I was on o2 support and they said it was due to weather in London and south boroughs.

Im like 54m away from that exchange so my connection is VERY stable they said but my IP throughput is going slow.

My connection went off for two hours. It's not even snowing here!
If your on the Be network then it's because of the exchange upgrades and re-routing.

Oh, fair enough then. You on the LLU or a BT wholesale package?

Mine has slowed... I don't know by how much, but over the past week some things have taken a lot longer than usual (at least twice as long) to download. It is currently:
http://www.speedtest.net/result/407135612.png (http://www.speedtest.net)
For some reason the upload speed is crazy (I've never thought about it before), but the download speed has definitely dropped.

Edit: Just checked and the download speed average is 38468 kb/s... so it's dropped by a lot! The upload average is 24138 kb/s... so that's dropped a bit as well.

[gamingWOW]

Mine has taken a slight lashing, but is better now :)
These are wireless speeds by the way.

How are Cambridge uni your ISP?

Absolutely no idea! That's just what Speedtest gave me. I'm the same guy who took a while to realise that he could use the ISP average to find out how far the drop was. All I know is that when it's running at full capacity, it blows away the internet connection I have at home.

Seriously... download a GB of data in a matter of moments here, whereas it would take a couple of hours at home. Painful contrast. :(

Edit: These show the drop in a pretty format.

Jesus christ, I thought it was bad when my ping on ventrilo showed as 5200, I thought it was just lag but jesus christ...

I usually get 4MB. Time to complain.

Mines gone up alot.. but it is 1:30, so there wont be as many users connected.

Its a shame a ****** used up 8 GB of a rapidshare account within 1 hour.

Selfish :@ :@

[Recursion]

Usually get double that, the exchange is only a mile away by straight line distance or the road.
