Hi Everyone My patience is wearing very thin with BT, who have twice disconnected our ADSL connection "by mistake" since we moved office last month. The first time it was off for about 4 days, and the latest time we've been told there is no way of switching it back on again and will have to wait for a brand new ADSL provision, which for some inexplicable reason takes 5 working days. I've been...

I've been with Pipex for years, and am paying ~£23 pcm for their Solo1000 1meg service. I live in a remote location, but can now get 2meg from my local exchange. Can anybody please recommend a good reliable ISP who can offer me a better deal than Pipex? I only need 2meg service, so don't really want to be paying for 8 when I can only use a quarter of that bandwidth. Not worried about a...

I've got namesco's unlimited option and I know that most ISPs deliver service on a contended basis, but every evening the service goes ****e........really slow. Has anyone else experienced this with namesco? I wouldn't expect it as I'm paying a premium price for a premium service.

My broadband connection drops out a number of times each evening. It then reconnects automatically - at a different speed - at continues. These breaks in continuity are rather annoying when I'm trying to listen to a radio programme. I was under the impression that a broadband connection should be continuous and that any change of connection speed should be seamless. Am I correct or do I have...

Just a query... Has AOL UK upgraded all its existing customers (who were on 1meg) to 2meg free of charge? Or is the 2meg offer only available to newcomers to the service?

They are a scam. If they think your traffic is too much they cut your service. In they Fair Usage Policy they claim they will send two warnings before they reduce your bandwidth. NOT TRUE. And after you spend ages on paid customer support they ask to send a mail to and this is what happens next: Undeliverable: FUP Warning1 Your message To:...

Migrating between broadband providers in the last year has become more complex due to a number of issues which included disputes between wholesale providers and their resellers, new broadband products such as shared unbundling, fully unbundled lines and a number of broadband service providers not signing up to Ofcom's voluntary code of practice (http://www.ofcom.org.uk/advice/codes/bbm_cop)...

I have just tested 12 numbers on my street to find that only one of them agrees with Tiscali. According to BT most lines are good for 4 to 5meg, but according to Tiscali these lines are only good for 2Meg. What is going on? Are Tiscali telling lies? Are BT telling lies? Who is right and how come the two databases don't tally with each other. Is Tiscali making out that lines are good for only...

ADSL service started 26 January with Tiscali. Using Edimax AR-7064+ router downstream figures: SNR = 6.5 dB Attenuation = 39 dB Speed = 7168 kbits/sec Seems very good, but connection drops once or twice per hour - and continues to do so now that 10-day training period is well past.

Does AOL UK use IP Stream or Datastream? Thanks Rob

My ductless underground cable has been causing problems for the 3 years I've had it. There's a physical fault with the underground cable but BT has chosen to swap pairs instead of fixing the problem - the other pair is now playing up. The second pair was recently fixed - almost inevitably a temporary fix according to the engineer. The engineer explained to me that he is a self-employed...

Tried to get a MAC code from supanet today. First phone call, guy says he will call me back. After 1 hr, still no call, so rang them again,this time he says they don't give MAC codes. Only way is to cancel. Will see what happens on 14th feb when new rules come in. Bunch of ******* the lot of 'em.

Hi, I have the above router, which is all set up with VPN and works exactly the way I want. How can I find out (in advance) if it will work on any of Thailand's ADSL networks? From what I can establish, most users have a network router. The telephone connection on the wall socket, is an International-style socket. It works with a 56k UK dial-up modem, if that's any help. I doubt that...

Hi all, How can I get a DG834GT router working with AOL. I don't believe this "AOL don't support it" - AFAIK the router has a username and password and you must be able to get it to work. We have over 50 users who we provide ADSL with Zen Internet, but this one user has his own AOL account so I offered to try and get him working with that (so his family can use the home PC and he can use his...

Virgin are currently running TV adverts which are false and misleading. They claim that they offer UNLIMITED use. This is not correct as they only allow a specified amount of data per month. This includes everything, from data sent and received, also all acknowledgements, page refreshes, email and news. It also includes unsolicited traffic, port scanning and pings. So once again, the...
