Slow connection?
 

We get free orange broadband but since the wife has renewed her contract it appears to have slowed down alot


The connection seems okies but the upload speed is ridiculously slow? seem to have issues watching streaming stuff like youtube. I keep getting "low bandwisth" problems with the bbci player too

Any of you techies see any problem here?

mate i with orange and it recently has changed alot i got really slow stuff have to wait for the video to buff on youtube awful at the moment

errr yeah lmao is that shit

Your upload speed shouldn't effect streaming youtube, iplayer etc. Download speed is enough to stream and watch videos no problems, must be a problem somewhere else. Have you tried rebooting the net and PC?

Yeah has gone on for weeks, have rebooted the router thingy a few times too

I got the Voda dongle thingy and its been getting worse and worse the past few months... same problems as yourself. Gunna ring up and ask for discount.

maybe because its free ? and more and more users are getting it so the connection is going to get slower and slower.. i doubt they would give you 20mb connection each etc ye they give you free internet but do they state what speeds etc? also depends on how far away the exchange is away..

Well we've had it free for 3 years till now and been fine, just cos it's free doesn't mean it can be shit, i mean it's only "free" cos the missus signed up to an 18 month contract with them

*red...

My new TalkTalk connection cuts out every 5 minutes or so and then re-connects, anyone know the reason for this?

Taltalk are utter utter shit, i used to have them when they 1st came out and they were appawling, servers were constantly down etc

slammed_Posi_Vtr im with talktalk and it hapeens to me after 5Pm takes the piss there shit might have to ring them up

That happens to me sometimes :wall: Except im with pipex broadband :wall:

...should have gone with BT :wall:

Orange only offer 448kbps upload so thats about right Paul. I know a few ISP's are now offering 768k and more.

Upload wont affect streaming.

Call up your ISP and report the issue. Could be down to so many things:
1 - incorrect your installation your end
2 - faulty router
3 - your BT line is too long to support what product your on
4 - theres a fault on the BT line

virgin media ftw
