johnr:nutbugs: Yep - I have noticed issues in Kapiti around those times.
Have you logged an official fault ticket with Vodafone for peak time congestion?
Not yet johnr - I just go and do something else :)
As was pointed out earlier - I figured it would be a "that's life" type response - but seeing others are having issues I shall double check speeds to ensure I am not dreaming and look to log a fault.
