yes, same here. Started monday or Tuesday. Can't watch streaming BBC news just keeps buffering. download speed is OK when downloading but takes ages to find the page. I noticed when doing a speedtest on speedtest.net that the test server has changed from Maidstone to Sittingbourne - is that relevant?

What packages are you both on? Also speedtest.net pics a random server for you to speedtest from just to level out and balance usage

I am on the new mid package been in touch with Tec support it something to do with lost packets if you ping the bbc web site or other web sites you get lost or long speeds they supposed to be looking at it but nothing on the status page yet speed check site's say slow but you can down load fast just web pages are slow to load.
tried to get back in touch with Tec support last night but there where to busy

No problems in Brough either:  Been getting some good speeds since switching to Mid, although that might be pure coincidenc.e I know that's not much consolation.

Browsing is painful for me in Brough, sometimes its fine, the next second its like wading through treacle.
