    Which exchange?

    Im in Bantry and currently have to put up with 3m/256k crap instead of 3m/384k and I was getting 288k yesterday!!!

    I wouldnt mind but Im not even 1Km from the exchange and the line was solid at 288k:mad: :mad: :mad:

    i have the same problem. since Friday my BT BB+ connection in Maynooth has gone really bad with the upload speed being fine at 300 or so kbps however the download has gone as low as 251 kbps!

    currently the download is 823 kbps - still not even half what it was before the upgrade. strange thing is, is that after the upgrade last week i was getting 3 mbit down for 5 or so days with no issues.

    Well I rang BT about this at 12:00 and they said they can do nothing until the 1st Feb when these packages become official...but I asked for the complaint to be logged anyway!

    Your currently getting less than what you originally had so you have a valid argument to complain right now about it.

    How is it so bad for you as well....I would expect a 3Mb connection
    to be pumping out at 320-330KBytes/s.:eek: :) :eek:

    My BT 2MB line wasn't doing more than 50k down until I reset the modem. Now it's doing 160k down :(
