@10.30am seems to be the first time I can connect to any site this morning.
Hope it's fixed now or at least nearly there

Re: Slow speeds nationwide today

On my wired PC and my work laptop on wired VPN I'm having the same problems as everyone else here in Bo'ness. Using my iPhone or the wife's iPad on wireless I'm not having any issues.

Any idea why that would be?

Could be that the wireless on those devices isn't exactly great so maybe your not noticing it?
