Well there seem to be some big network upgrades coming in over the next couple of weeks which should help with the speed problems. Could be you got caught up in the upgrade, so hopefully it'll change soon.
I don't like being caught like this.....especially having experienced the 5000+kbps stability recently experienced.
To revert to the connection spec. of pre-May will only encourage me to request a MAC, so the sooner they complete their upgrade the better.....for them that is !!!

Strange, thought it was me but rock solid 6000 on Weston-super-Mare exchange has gone tonight.
Recorded following speeds tonight:
877
783
817
922
1537
Have not used it much tonight and I am not downloading. However the speed the pages appear I did not think it was that slow. Check with other speed testers and they are all about the same. Last time this happened the speed tester was defective but not this time.
Stats normal:
ADSL firmware version : A2pBT009c1.d17d
Connection mode : G.DMT
Type : Fast
Noise margin (dB) : 9.2
Attenuation (dB) : 38.0
Attainable download rate (kbps) : 8032
ADSL status : Connected [0]
Here's the stats.....after logging on again because connection went down, and that's not happened in a long while :-
ADSL Internet Settings
Type Fast
Status No Defect
Downstream Upstream
Data rate 6272 288
Noise margin 6.9 31.0
Output power 19.6 10.3
Attenuation 39.0 19.5
Notice the downstream has changed fom 6656 to 6272....not a lot but ????
Here's the Speedtest :
Well, well, well, would you believe it.......I'll tell you now...they're FCUKing with the wrong person.......sorry Admin & Elhana.
Emailed Abensur with latest results, asked what **** they thought they were playing at, using such an amateur business strategy and demanded a MAC by return email.
I've now calmed down.........I'll let you know if a MAC arrives....yes, I know they don't normally respond to email requests.
