Blueyonder broadband...
...anyone else struggling to keep a connection.
I keep getting IP lease expired etc.. only way to get back on is unplug/plug in the modem a few times. any ideas??? eddie |
nope. I've had one outage in about 3 years with my BY connection. Could be a problem in your area. Have you checked the BY site?
|
np with my conn.
hope u get it sorted. |
Ive had a prob like that over the past week or so, the connection has gone down 3 or 4 times and the only way to sort it is by reseting the modem. Dont know why this has started happening, bit of a pain in the ass:mad:
|
Might be something to do with the speed upgrades they're doing in May?
|
I have the same problem on ntl and it was rock steady until midweek !
|
i went to the by site, but nothing listed, so i decided to click their complaints button...you guessed it ..it lost connection and wouldn't reconnect.
So i've not really used it much this weekend, but touch wood it seems fine at the moment, been on' tinternet 'bout a hour or so now with no foul ups. Thanks for your replys, eddie |
Burr-speed upgrades?
That explains why my download speed has suddenly increased by 50% Now achieving 90Kb/s Sorry eddie this is not much help is it. |
Mine too. Mine's now hitting 150kbYtEs / sec
|
Yes they are upgrading speeds FOC by 50% so ur standard broadband is now 728kbs! :)
|
Does say somewhere on the blueyonder web site that your cable modem will be reset as part of the upgrade and hence the connection dropped.
Not done mine yet, well not that I've noticed. |
think mine has been done getting 90k/sec downloads now:D:D
|
If you run a speed test http://www.adslguide.org.uk/tools/speedtest.asp/ what speeds are u getting on ur BY connection?
Thanks |
