Re: South Warrington slow
A bit below the 4Mb I am supposed to be on, but it seems okay here. It doesn't feel too bad when browsing.

Re: South Warrington slow
Same problem here, traffic shaping for all, regardless of how little you have downloaded. VM must find it easier to throttle everyone than to "select" the alleged heavy downloaders.

I live just by the British Legion. I,m not joking the last few weeks browsing has been like dial up in the early evening, but a last check on ebay at midnightish sees performance back to where you would expect it for 4mb.

Re: South Warrington slow
Glad it's not just me then (Manchester) Great 0.68 mbps. First time I have had rotten speeds for years, that makes it worse

Doesn't Warrington hang off Baguely?
