    Dropped for me in Cork City last night shortly after one. Not sure how long it was down, but was working fine at half 8 this morning.

    I have been on line gaming now for a couple of months (DUBLIN) ...no issue BUT in the past 48hrs i have been having major lag issues .


    Is it related ???? who knows ??

    I heard UPC have had a huge uptake of their new Broadband packages , are they doing some upgardes or are we getting contention issues :o

    Gamer,

    Call em up ..last thing we want is to be paying for a service and getting Lag when playing on line , i have been told that their excuse to some customers who they cant resolve the LAG issue is ..."UPC BB dont support on line game" ...we dont want to have to put up with this BS answer.

    We've been having troubles in D6 (Harold's Cross, near the canal) now for almost a month. We regularly get disconnected, sometimes every 15 minutes, sometimes every few hours. The length of disconnection likewise varies between 30 seconds and a few hours. Eitherway, it's enough to kick you out of any game :)

    We played around with everything possible at our end. New cables, different routers, wired vs wireless. No change.

    The signal levels on the modem look ok. The modem logs show major problems with either no ranging response, or no DHCP response. No DHCP response is by far the most common.

    We'll call them up today, but fighting with NTL/UPC's customer service is no fun way to spend a weekend ;)

    If anyone's experiencing similar to the above (especially in D6), shout!
