Eircom gone tits up in the Shankill/Bray area?

Sure it will be grand

It has been dropping pings since Friday and has gotten progressively worse over the weekend. Today it is unusable.

Eircom NGB Advanced 8MB

Laptop plugged directly into router, all other phones disconnected, wifi disabled.





Very erratic ping response.

My SN Margin has been falling steadily over the past hour. It has dropped from 7dB to 3dB, and now now even dipping in the 2dB range.

SN up remains stable at 17dB.

SN Margin (dB)
3.00 down / 17.00 up

Line Attenuation (dB)
32.00 down / 19.00 up

Don't know what's going on. The weather is fine outside - no wind, no rain.

Couple of friends have lost there connection in Bray.
Not a DNS issue, mine is fine in Bray and fingers crossed it stays like that too.

SN Margin now at 2.1 and dropping. Pings getting worse. Looks like I'll be losing this connection altogether in the next hour.

What Eircom package are you on?

Sure it will be grand

As predicted, Eircom broadband has completly crapped out. Not syncing at all. Comes back every few minutes and then down again.

Is anyone else in the Shankill having probs?

Time to move to UPC?

My ping logs indicate that at *excactly* 2AM my connection went back to normal. Coincidence?

Thanks for the stats. I think you're on the same package as me.

The bill says:
"Next Gen. Broadband Advanced 8MB - Unlimited upload and download allowance" €65.82 bi-monthly (ex VAT). Do you pay the same?

Wondering if I should move to UPC Fibre.. hmm.

docmol

you should have moved to upc years ago!

and much cheaper!
