so anyway, i tried the isolation test etc, but my dsl stats look quite good everything being equal.
at peak times the connection is quite slow speed test shows 1 - 0.9 Mbps download, skype is unusable, youtube requires lots of buffering etc...
at non peak times its not too bad, and and low use times it can get up to the expected download speed.
im connected to the Dunedin central Exchange, i was on mammouth UBA and now 50 gig UBA.
compass says if its not the line (which it appears not to be) then its congestion on the exchange and thus nothing can be done.
short of going with another provider are there really no other options?
