Anyone else noticed a dramatic decline in their connection speed over the last few days?

Is it the weather?

who's your service provider? you may have exceeded your bandwidth! have you been on to check your usage?

Two days ago there was an 'outage' in Scotland that affected the North East; anyone using BT lines (which is just about everyone no matter who your ISP is) could have experienced a slow down. I rang my ISP to find out what the problem was and was given that information. It is now fixed.

Thanks merc, funnily enough when my friends had that trouble a week ago mine was unaffected? Last couple of days its snail mail early in the mornings? Takes ages just to load up e-mail never mind opening sites.

Nope, not back to normal. We seem to be limited to 2Mbps at the moment.

Try http://www.speedtest.net and post your results.

not very accurate though gave me 4.6mbps compared to http://speedchecker.org which gave me an accurate reading of 6.5mbps

After taking the test my speed is 12 mbps. my internet provider just doubled the speed on mine for no extra cost

Shocking the uk is listed as 30th in the top download speeds list 0.01 faster than lietchenstien....

Tried that the other day, it took about 5 MINS to do the test!

Tried last night, it took about 30 secs?

Mornings used to be about the best time for speedy downloads now it seems evenings are?

LOL

I think it's at least pan-european, speeds in Italy are way down too.
