  • Bt Broadband has been a bit flakey for me the past couple of days had connection problem twice today for a few mins 3 times yesterday and twice the day before that. It could be the ISPs end.

    have you rebooted the router (turned the power off for at least 30 seconds, or pressed the reboot button).

  • Contact your exchange and ask them to 'turn up the gain' A friend of mine told me I had aluminium cable running from the exchange to my business, which is cheaper and of poorer quality than copper cable. So the data connection wouldn't be as good. Also it depends on your distance from the exchange too! So depending who your service provider that promise of "UPTO 8MB DOWNLOAD" is an empty one :-(
