That's not information that we tend to collate, although such details may come to the fore during the course of the normal interactions between members, I would suspect though that we have a few Members here that have varying degrees of disability.

My 4MB connection is generally pretty decent. I live in St. Helens...classed as the Liverpool area.

Although when ever I download over 700MB in 1 day, my connection gets severely limited to under 0.5MB, and I get high latencies and time outs on some local hops.

I have no clue if I've been upgraded or not. It's going slower than ever if anything.

Why, you looking to start a support group for people who use sms text on forums?

Problems with the Liverpool area have been bad for a good two weeks now (cut-off's slow downs and some sites not working) and now tonight i'm hardly getting broadband seeds at all.

It's really not good enough.

Looks like VM are doing some capacity upgrade work in your area next week, which may help to ease the pain a little.

I think it's a capacity upgrade to increase the throughput on the UBR so it can handle the load a lot better. But it's no excuse for letting it get that bad in the first place tho. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt (oversubscribed from Oct 07 till Sep 08).

Just spoke to them, and they said that they should have the Liverpool area fixed in the next 2 days.

That'll be impressive considering they aren't starting the capacity upgrades until Tuesday morning and the upgrades run for four nights.

It sure would. I'm not hoping for much.
