Anyone else having connection problems today, or just Pipex users?

Its like being back on dialup at the moment, thats when sites will actually load [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

So is it just me, or anyone else?

Same problem here.....more like 64k than 512k !

Mine was really slow yesterday (Freeserve ADSL), so I reset my router and then it wouldn't connect LCP No Response

Of course Freeserve were totally useless, so luckily it fixed itself overnight. Seems okay now.

There is a on-going problem with BT Radius servers where authentication of the routers fails first time and then the user account is disabled. Typically this is when the router is re-started. The way round it is to bring the router up and to enter the BT engineering test account

bt_test@startup_domain

with no password. This should bring the circuit up and then you re-enter your userid and password. Obviously you need to know your account and password info before trying this.

I've seen 8 or 9 ADSL installs with this problem over the last month or so.

Thanks for the tip Jeff. I'll give that a go if it does it again

Seems to have speeded up a bit now - there has been a problem recently with faulty BT hardware as well according to the Pipex website. Not sure if that is the same thing Jeff?

It seems OK now - at least it makes you realise how good ADSL is
