Virgin Net back to slowdown before midnight...again..

Hi Folks,

My Virgin Net ( VM?) connection is back to it's old ways of running
really slow up until midnight.

Have then started serious throttling again ?

It's been OK for months now, but this week it's been really dreadful.

about 200kbps if I'm lucky.

Just after midnight barkes appear to come off and away we go.

There is just no way that I can have triggered being on a traffic
management plan as I haven;t been doing anything.

Ho hum..

Jim.

My connection in SW London is 10Mbps for the entire evening everyday for
the first time for many months used to go down to > 500K.
Hope they don't fix your and mess up mine ;-)

He probably means Virgin.net ADSL which I had the misfortune to have
about a year ago, throttled to death at peak times.
Virgin ADSL never again.
