I've spent 3 months and about 15 hours in phone calls to o2 regarding my broadband. Most of them putting it down the external wireless issues of which they have no control.
One person eventually asked about my landline (also with o2) sent an engineer and when I rang to hear the report it was 'fixed' but they couldn't tell me more than that.
Internet was fine since last night. The last one I spoke with said he would send a claim for some comp considering my carp service for three months and wasted time when it was all their fault in the first place.
My call within 48 hours didn't happen, but I aint gonna bother ringing them just yet lolI get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!0 -
I find I have really good speeds with O2 but what does annoy me is that I find quiet often pages don't connect especially when I've followed a link, if I leave it a few minutes I can then get it but it does get frustrating. I want to put my old router back in but I can't find the set up details.
Sorry I'm going off topic but I'm worried it may affect me when completing reports or looking for work.0 -

yup thats the reason i posted, it affected me last night
trying to upload 35x 10mp photos to an ftp site took over 2 hours...
let alone submitting reports and other stuff i wanted to do
i used my mobile to create a wireless hotspot in the end to do them and it was far quicker... which is just a joke
ETA:
Is it an old o2 router ? if so just plug it in and it will work
if not
details here on how to set up your own

Last night, had an email from abai about some assignments. Did one this lunchtime at work as it told me to visit the store between 11am - 2pm. So I got paid for my lunch hour0
