Quote from: Snoopy on June 08, 2010, 06:56:31 PMIs your PC wireless too or are you, like me, connected via an ethernet cable to the router thus leaving others with their laptops the wireless bit and its problems? That way I don't get the outages that they suffer.ALSO it is a fact that the service does get bloody awful in the earlier part of the evenings when all the kids come home, have tea and log on throughout the village. Even my direct connection slows down. If yours is anything like mine as soon as Dr Who comes on matters improve and if there is nowt on the telly then it is slow going until after ten when it all picks up again.I'm all connected in the 'normal' way. They're all remote.I've neer known it as bad as it is now though.Strange how I can get on here at present, but not the Koptalk site that I frequently visit.Same goes for some other sites. Some load great, others don't load at all for a while...unless I log off and fire up again, and then I noramlly get a small window of 5 minutes to get in there before the freezing and non loading starts again.

Oh hang on. That wasn't a result, that was an example of the average pc I think. I'm a bit confuslilicated now.
