do you keep getting limited to 30kB/s after 7pm in the weekdays ?

Every nite ive been limited this month, cant get any higher than 30 kiloBYTES per second on file downloads or streaming or even loading a picture. Any other time after 7am and i get 290kb/s again.

:mad:

Yeah since around the time carphone warehouse bought AOL UK my connection went downhill ... however we are now on the talktalk phone package and now basically get free broadband so I dont really mind

Yeah 7pm is in their peak times, so they will throttle you down.

Is this happening with all customers?.

I normally see a slight reduction in speed down from the usual 6-7Mb I normally get during the day down to around 3-4Mb in the evening.

But over the last week or so, I've been getting download speeds of this after 7pm:-

Pretty hopeless!!!.
