Check your connection speed here, (http://www.broadbandspeedchecker.co.uk/) I'm currently on d/load speed of 2904kbs which is about same as usual.

Not on talk talk but have experienced some problems after downloading latest version of firefox ,If you have done that you could try uninstalling version 9 and going back to the old version to see if it works

Yeah I've been on that tech support number for an hour, hope they don't charge me for for listening to their crappy call centre music and talking to some indian guy who wasn't aware of the now obvious problem with them.

For the past few days now my connection has been on and off for no apparent reason.

It started at the same time the www ppl introduced more url languages so I recon it's something to do with that.


Don't call it they know nothing.

I got 1552 on that broadband test thingy, not going to grumble I can remember not so long ago getting a stiffy over getting 4.5kbps when all there was was dial up or ISDN with £300 quarterly bills.:hihi:

I was wrong I've just looked up what I was talking about ealier and it seems they weren't introducing it they were just talking about it.

For anyone looking to switch from their current provider, I highly recommend O2 Broadband - Very fast, very reliable and UK call centers!!!

My Talk Talk has been fine all weekend, im getting my usual ~13mb with no disconnections.

O2 is fine as long as their LLU service is enabled at your exchange, their BT based Home Access package is dying a slow death at the moment.

which package is that on?

For an extra £4 per month they put you on "up to" 20mb ADSL2+, and for another £4 they increase your monthly download limit to 80GB (which still isn't that large TBH).

If you open an account on their website, you can switch these extras on and off monthly as you want them, getting them doesn't mean that you restart your contract.

Sorry to butt in here, but my score was at 3048. SO I guess I have the best coverage, woo!
