UPC problems recently

    Anyone else seeing their connection dropping several times a day for 1-2 minutes at a time? It's almost constant now for me. Wireless is fine and the router is fine (all usual lights on) but the internet just stops working every few minutes for 1-2 minutes at a time. I'm posting this from my Meteor 3G phone.

    I'm in North Dublin btw.

    Same problem here in Waterford for the past week. Very annoying especially when playing games online.

    same problem, I'm in Dublin city centre. Speed on internet will drop below 1mbps for long periods of time and every once and while the connection will just go completely.

    Also having lot of problems with my TV, some channels particularly Sky One will drop the signal every few minutes and take a few seconds to come back.

    I haven't complained because I keep getting letters from UPC saying that they are doing essental upgrades in my area and to please be patient with lose of service.

    But having said that I've been getting these letters for the last 6 months so they better get their act together pretty soon or I'll be off to someone else.

    Well my internet and phone died for about 5 minutes This Evening. My Pc still continued to be connected to modem during this outage, with a message of "No Internet Access" then all just came back with no further issues.
    In Dublin West.

    Same here. Connection drops for a couple of seconds at least once every 20 mins.

    I'd expect all these problems to be made public in the study
