I'm playing DoD on work connection on a 4u UK server and a guy is playing via IOLBB, pings never below 160. This isn't fixed and tbh I've no faith in IOL at all. I guess no DoD for me when I get home tonight.

Indeed this is very frustrating ok. I thought there was a "BIG FIX" due today.

Maybee Tuesday but I'm not holding my breath.

bloody awful:mad:

UTV speed test: 392kbit

Booster

mickger

giganews test= 172kbps

and it get's worse

Hobbes

I'm getting 56k modem speeds.. woo ****ing hoo. -_-

jonski

I'm getting sub 56k pings

Booster

Gone to absolute ****e now.

153 from utv's own speedtest.

geecee

Will attempt to post it.....
But have a feeling my "ligntening fast" internet will time out before then!

u.tv Speed Test:

948592 bytes transferred in 231.834 secs

32 kbit

All I can say is that UTV are going to have some serious explaining to do when we all end up in the small claims courts with claims against them!

I believe that even the 5 days allowed for in any SLA with ANY telecoms provider has now passed.

c'mon UTV sort it out

PS UTV users I'd be interested in hearing what the rest of you intend doing when you get your bill from thme next Monday.... I feel that a mass boycott of payment is required at this stage

Lucky buggers, I'm getting:

Communications: 72 kilobits per second

& averaging 64kbps from Giganews

Pings are good though NOT.

They were among the better results :eek:

What a joke :mad: All the while still paying €47.50 to UTV for this crap. Glad I didn't resign & I think it's pretty obvious why UTV FORCED people to commit for another 12 months.

Latest from Martin UTV Newsgroup

"Again, sorry for the delays, but am spending a lot of time on the phone to
Esat
and really not getting much information back. On the plus side they seem to
be
in the same boat with Eircom.

The most recent piece of news I have is that Eircom have said that they are
putting
this issue at the top of their list, expediting it etc etc. What they are
not committing to
at this stage is a date to complete the work, although they have stated that
they will
make all best efforts to get this done tonight or tomorrow. I know this
might sound a
bit confusing and perhaps contradictory, but I'm really passing along the
message exactly
as Esat have received it. In their own words, they don't think that Eircom
could have
phrased the message any more politically.

I'm waiting for a few more calls/texts to be returned tonight.

In answer to somebodys previous question about pings, and what this should
solve, the
answer is all speed/ping issues.

Martin."

Couch Potato

Are the users going to be compensated in any way as they have admitted that the service is not up to scratch ??

I guess there will be 2 hopes of that !!!

Richard Dower

You'll just have to ring and request.

TheGreatOne

Was trying to play Battlefield Vietnam earlier, about 22.30, the best ping i saw was 221, absolutely pathetic!! Getting disconnected from the server every few mins as well. This is really becoming a joke, whoever is to blame!

Squall

I agree tryed a bit of UT earlier. Oh what fun!!!

Really needs sorting soon

Stephen

Anyone know if the upgrades/repairs they were talking about are going ahead today? I can't check the UTV support newsgroup as I am at work at the moment.

dub45

Given whats beeen reported in the Esat thread I think this will take a few days at least before everything is back to normal.
