Same here, Paul.

Philip · Dec 26, 2008, 22:25:49

same for me

David · Dec 26, 2008, 22:40:41

Disconnected router turned to red, still cant get on via desktop

dlorde · Dec 26, 2008, 22:48:05

Yup, same for me.

I have to say that with Pipex I didn't get regular disconnections like this - but when they did occasionally disconnect, they were down for hours rather than minutes... hard to say which is more annoying.

But OTOH at least my speeds with IDNet are 10x faster (yes) and they give you someone to complain to

David · Dec 26, 2008, 23:13:06

Back on line

what was that all about ?

Simon · Dec 26, 2008, 23:14:01

It was about 2 minutes, David.

David · Dec 26, 2008, 23:19:07

More than 2 mins here Simon,I rebooted twice and when that didnt cure it I unplugged router.

Simon · Dec 26, 2008, 23:25:35

Oh right, well I just left well alone, and by the time I'd made a cup of tea, it was back on again.

I've noticed one or two websites being quite slow, Next in particular, but I put it down to extra traffic with the sales.

David · Dec 26, 2008, 23:31:28

I took a valium and let the tea go cold

Sebby · Dec 26, 2008, 23:40:01

It's probably BT messing around, or at least that's what they usually find the cause to be. We'll see when the IDNet guys return.

David · Dec 26, 2008, 23:42:32

Night guys

I expect it will have been forgotten by then!

Sebby · Dec 27, 2008, 00:03:55

Nothing gets forgotten here.

Baz · Dec 27, 2008, 08:36:41

yep had some too about 10.00pm ish and some during the day but dont have any times

thought mine was just down to me setting up new laptops but it seems not

Tacitus · Dec 27, 2008, 08:51:11

FWIW - I'm not on iDNet - something similar happened to me with my Demon connection around tea time yesterday. I don't think the line dropped, but PPP must have gone down.

Rik · Dec 27, 2008, 10:06:14

No down time recorded here. The last couple of times this has happened was when BT were doing maintenance on one of the centrals and when there was an outage at the Ilford data centre (or whatever it's name properly is...).

I'll see if I can get any info.

talos2 · Dec 27, 2008, 10:06:42

Is there anybody there?

Looks like the Netgear is still in BST, Paul.

Who are you looking for, Bob?

talos2 · Dec 27, 2008, 10:10:09

Just an answer Rik, seems a lot of the web is on a go slow or down, strange thing my speed has almost doubled

Rik · Dec 27, 2008, 10:14:21

I'm seeing pretty much normal speeds, Bob, except from 'sales' sites, which were going slow from the outset.

Have you done a BT speed test?

BT speed test never seems to work for me ,but I will try again.

Rik · Dec 27, 2008, 10:21:09

If you can't get to BT, can you try the ThinkBroadband one, and let me know the results plus your sync speed, attenuation and noise margin?

Danni · Dec 27, 2008, 10:31:30

And I thought it was just me

I also had the drop last night, but it came back on after a few minutes so wasn't bothered.
