    Since about this time last night, my broadband just wouldnt work, the computer said it was connected but no websites appeared or msn wouldnt sign in, i got it working, but it has slowed down significantly, and its really noticable too. Im with Eircom. I did the irishisptest and im getting 96.0kbps down and 243 up. with a 33% quality service. tho this has been varying through out the day too. But the other night(the upgrade night) I was getting 2.67Mbps down and 313 up. with a 98%. Just wondering if this is happening to anyone else? Im also in the Wexford Town area. Just wondering before i give Eircom a call, if the problem in on there end or on mine. Thanks in advance for you help...


    Edit: sorry guys, i should looked two posts down, Problem with the pings?

    My connection is very flakey tonight - download speed is poor, around 60-100kbs when it should be 300kbs.
