Hi and welcome to the forum.

Is it general, or specific sites?

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Thank you.

Every site I've tried so far has been very slow. The download speed went back to normal briefly, but now it's slow again. Ping times are alright, though.

[Rik]

Can you try a BT speed test please?

I will let you know once the page loads; it's been almost five minutes now!

[Rik]

It's never the nippiest, unfortunately. I'm interested in whether your profile is an issue.

Yes, yes, yes, diabolical here in Sunny Scotland. Everything (I mean everything is like treading through a thick Scottish porridge).

I wonder what it could be?  Hope it clears up soon

Honestly, it is really diabolical. So, so slow throughout the whole spectrum. Been like this since mid afternoon Very, very difficult to carry out any function satisfactorily

I've alerted support to this thread, so if anyone else is affected, can you add details and geographic location here please?

[Simon]

It's been fine here in Sussex.

[Rik]

OK in MK. I'm wondering if there is a BT node issue.

Thanks Rik

Clearly not a problem caused by IDNet, but the 'system' is all over the place and basically unusable.

[zappaDPJ]

Some I recently brought to IDNet is also complaining of very low throughput today in the Cambridge area.

[Rik]

Thanks, Q.

[paleblue]

I'm in Aberdeenshire also.

Baz is not far from you, which will blow my geographic theory.
