    Usually I can connect to UTVip on the first try, but since around 6pm I've been trying with no luck. Keeps saying line is busy and I've tried it on 2 diff computers.

    Anyone else, or is just poor me?

    Worked first time for me at 18:03 and connected since. Nice speed too, i think there has been more upgrades in the last few days.

    no probs here as well pie,

    i usually find it better to connect after 6.10 cause you have hundred's of thousands of people trying to connect at 6 :)

    having a few problems here too.. I normally get a few busy signals, then it connects. About 1-2 seconds later it disconnects again and it normally reconnects after about 3/4 tries at the deplorable speed of 33k (I normally get 48k).

    If it connects at 49.2k I know its going to disconnect within 5 minutes. I sometimes have to disconnect & dialup again because it wont access email/ftp servers etc...

    I have noticed that it seems to be getting slowly worse however, a worrying finding :(

    I've found it ok, a bit dodgy for part of last week, but seems to have settled down. From time to time after 9pm its hard to get on at a decent speed, but mostly its better than most services and its saving a bloody fortune :)
