It is only when it doesn't work you realise just how much you actually use it and miss it.
My Internet has been playing up for several weeks despite the most excellent advice from the call centre in India sir that kept telling me there is nothing wrong with it
Anyway at last I had engineers out most of today so have a new router and temporary fix to fibre optic cable, a whole new cable has to be brought in from the street and this will be getting done in a 4 weeks which is the first free slot they have.
My guess is the tree which has been growing madly in the few years since the cable was originally put in has damaged the cable.
So far so good with a much improved performance but nothing close to the speeds it should be and was, as long as it doesn't just drop off every few minutes I can live with that until the new cable is installed.
I had a new cable run from the street a couple of years ago. I hope your test socket is on an outside wall. Ours was in the lounge on an inside wall. BT refused to go under the floor with the wiring and insisted on running it from the outside, through the wall, around the outside of two door frames, along the skirting board till they got there. Elegant and discreet- NOT. Good luck!
My friend' seen having problems with her internet. She said her tablet would suddenly have a pop up message from BT connect that she couldn't shift this is despite her being with Virgin Media. Her friend was saying that her works Internet started playing up, and that too, they found out was caused by BT Connect trying to 'push' them onto their service
Technology took a turn for the worse today, I dropped my iPhone running in to the station going to a shout today and it got run over, it is destroyed
