Has anybody out there been capped around the clock

[Zero Excuses]

I've had 2 meg complete cap recently and it's painful.

I've stopped viewing live streaming and Youtube to try and get back up to speed again. Engineer is coming out tomorrow to check stuff out (doubt he'll find anything but they insisted. I do get 10 megs when all is cool) so let's see what happens but I was surprised to get a strangled 2 meg around the clock.


I have to add - yes, I was using the internet on a basis of like 9 in the morning to 2 at night . Then again it was just having a laugh rather than anything interesting.

Prior to this I was youtubing and all sorts without any strangulation at all.

Thats sounds more like oversubsciption mate rather than STM
