Is this good?

No sign of major packet loss which is always nice but the average and maximum latency figures are pathetic.

Have few problems with VM 50mbit myself. The big spike is down to a 15GB download.

Yea mines been pretty tidy since about last thursday, as I said though, it's blatantly because the students are away and it will be back to it's old terrible state in Jan.

I'm enjoying it whilst it lasts though

mines like this every night now, since about 4-5 weeks,since they added another downstream channel (now have 5) the big red block was a loss of connection while i was at work, reboot and back to normal , well i say normal, rubberbandin every 30 seconds on bf3 has become normal

here is mine after nearlly a week.

still looking pretty solid. Virgin isn't all bad

Well mine has gone back to a decent connection, seems my whining on the VM forums and multiple emails to people got something moving

This is what it was like

It's been good for like a week or two now, if it keeps up i'll be v.happy although rest of Bradford still seems to be crap.

Peak time congestion. No packet loss. So so.

I did miss them a while ago after switching over to ADSL, partly becuase there was no service!

Touchwood, its not been the case for over 5 months now!

Funny, all the Students are home for Christmas and you guys appear to have good service.

ChrisD. · 27 Dec 2011 at 11:49

Mine's still poor.

ca9phoenix · 27 Dec 2011 at 12:00

mine is rubbish..... still waiting for the 100mb in my area

edit:

100mb install on the 12th Jan...... spotted the update on the site, still says being planned in my area but its booked, free install and extra £8.50 a month

ChrisD. · 27 Dec 2011 at 13:06

I've been tempted to install, but it won't make the connection any better.
