"Help with my broadband account"

Hi I called in last night about the internet being very slow and actually dead at some points, the router is still in sync the ADSL light is on the Internet light is on some times off other times, and some times it comes up with the log in page for the router, but not my router!

Any how a I know that Freeola said there was NO problem that they were aware off, but I have made several calls this morning round the village and beyond, all the village (various ISPS ) are having the same problem and the two nearest big towns both about 6 miles from our village are having the same problem, so clearly if there is not a fault that your aware off it may soon become one :-)

OK Butch nudge nudge wink wink:-)

It looks like there were one or two issues yesterday with the running of the site, all sorted now though.

It wasn't the new homepage that caused it, just a random error I believe. Although, if McLong asks, it WAS the homepage he designed that was causing issues :)

'There may be trouble ahead - but let's face the music and dance' ...

Seems Freeola pages aren't refreshing as normal - real lag + javascript errors:

Any problems elsewhere?

Freeola seems to be running like a 'sack of potatoes'. It's not to do with 'new front page' is it?

Hi warhunt - its back to wizzy fast today not had time to log another speed test as we have had tractors and diggers all day trying to dig us out :) and tonight I get to go to work YEAH FREEDOM :)

That seems about right. A bit low maybe if we are being fussy for a 7+ profile.

Are you still seeing incredibly slow speeds at this point with that 5+ conn?

I got a result from the speed test and things appear to be speeding up now

Download speedachieved during the test was - 5259 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 600-7150 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :8128 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 7150 Kbps

Biggar is not that far away for sure , I tried the BT speedtest and it just hangs been saying this now for ages



The Performance Tester is now testing Broadband connection. Your configured download throughput speed for this service is 7150 k

Please do not move away from this page and do not start any other download activity on your computer.

but I have given up. Re weather update the sun is trying to get out and its getting warmer now -13!

am on facebook if you want to look up the photos :-)

kevin currie my profile pic is my grand vitara in the snow

FWIW
I see there is a BT MSO 'degraded service' being reported for 'Biggar' which isn't a million miles from Digi, not sure if that's connected or not...

Crickey! -16! Thats ridiculous...

And I thought -5 was cold when I was getting in my car this morning...

Hopefully so, if you could keep us updated though we can investigate if and when needed.

Hi Motomoto
Thanks for the fast reply - our weather is pants! last night -16 the snow is about 2feet deep all around this area and the main road to England is still closed I reckon it may be one of these problems that will clear its self ( I am blaming the weather) but its frustrating
