Last night my Virgin BBand connection was unuseable as it was so slow. I had to resort to 56K which was much faster. Its been doing it on and off for a couple of weeks but last night it was impossible.

Can't believe its contention ratio becuase I live in west wales and would be surprised if that many people here had bband and all on at the same time.

This morning though its fine. Would it be Virgin not being able to cope with its traffic?

Hello

Virgin are having problems. See the headlines on www.adslguide.org.uk and ask for compensation.
