Bt called back at this morning and they were unable to find what the fault is, so an engineer is coming out between 1 & 3.30pm today. Hooray. Fingers crossed this will help.

Bt man said there is nothing wrong with my line at all. He has put a cable straight from my main socket to the computer instead of using a filter. This didn't help though but he said it can only benefit the quality of the connection because my phone socket was a diy job and was full of electric wiring. So now its back in freenetnames hands, fingers crossed something will get sorted eventually.

I sound like a parrot but thanks again everyone for your advice and input, hopefully it will improve and I'll be sure to let you know if it does.

Nice shades Martin!!

Tonight my husband and I bought a new computer, we set it all up, installed the voyager 105 modem driver, logged in with freenetname account details and hey presto I am getting a 1800+kbps connection. I have no idea what it is that is wrong with my old pc, but I will restore it before I pass it onto my inlaws and see if it makes any difference to my speeds. I am dreading telling freenetname, not because they have been rude or anything but I've had calls from the/a chief executive of the company and a guy called Steve has been calling me daily with updates from Bt and freenetname. I can't really fault them trying. So I'll call tomorrow or Monday and let them know what has happened.

I am so loving this new computer it is fan dabby dooooo. All our games actually work I can see me never getting to bed tonight. Take care all, have a good weekend, thanks again for help, I can't believe it was the computer. Argh!!!
