What on earth has been going on over the last few days ?. My downstream states that I am on 15227 kbps yet speed tests are showing 300kbps :o. A couple weeks ago I was getting around 12mbps out of the 15mb, but now I am only getting a max of 4mbps after 1am.

Anyone got any idea what is happening as it is like being back on BT Broadband again :(

You're not alone, Jwar. I am also unable to view any video sites today. According to speedtest my download has been slashed down to 0.90mb. I am completely in the dark as to why this has happened. Has an explanation been offered in a different thread? I've looked but I can't find any information about this.

The general gist of things that ive understood is...

Enta have turned out on 24/7 365 days a year.

James posted that he was going to speak to a manager at Enta.

We are still waiting to hear what the result of that is.

I think I have workedout what has happened. The move to the Adsl2+ service has caused customers to go overload on their service & Entanets servers are not taking the load, so they have put on the evil ALT to save paying out money on better equipment :(.

My speeds are also very poor. Bet they take my money out the bank faster then they fix this issue. Sort it out, your now taking the mickey .. big time.

Thankfully my speed has returned today & am now getting 5mbps which is normal for this time of night. With anyluck I will be getting the 12mbps at about 2am as usual. Thanks to James for getting this sorted.
