Can't say I have noticed anything strange here;  Maybe marginally lower than usual, but not really noticable.

I have had that over the past week, usually at weekend. Gaming is ok (although I do get kicked off Eve when it happens). Throughput has been dire at peak times though.

Keep in mind that Network Maintenance was planned through November into December, it might just be your turn right now, if it hasn't stopped in another week then it may be something to worry about.
I'm trying to remember where the list of maintenance areas/dates went.

the network maintance was for business lines and shouldnt effect residentail Although i could be wrong about it effecting residentail even tho its for business customers

I believe the maintenance was for all ADSL lines, or atleast the ADSL2+ packages, not sure if some of it has gone ahead and a lot of it has been postponed.
