    Ever since the "free" speed increase my connection has become really unstable. Erratic pings and lost packets.

    I'm in D3 and my connection dropped out last night at about 10.

    I have physical sync on the line but cannot get an IP address from DHCP.

    I'll contact them when they open see what's up., was on here hoping to find it was a general issue.

    Ok so powered down my modem for 30 mins and rebooted.... got an IP that time so all ok again.

    Is it the Thompson modem? Mine might be overheating not sure.... have it tucked away in a press...

    Well think a couple of days I can't get my 120 Line to perform at all at any point of the day.

    This is my usual result.

    Well no sign of UPC today, supposed to be here between 9-1pm :rolleyes:

    Is there a UPC representative on boards? I think i've seen them before but cannot find them now.

    Dodgy cable apparently. Not sure how the cable went dodgy though,they didn't know either.
