Concussion Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 I'm on a 8mb phone line connection with Pipex Broadband, the one with `the Hoff` Every night from about 6 - 11 my speed drops down to about 209.40kbps... or so. Man that pisses me `hoff`!Tech guy tells me I have to share the bandwidth with other users and there is nothing they can do/Britain isn't set-up to handle the current rate of broadband internet users, blah, blah. Also, if I change ISP's it will basically be the same whoever I use... seemed an honest guy to be fair.Is he talkin shit or what, fancy doing a speed test and telling my who your ISP is / are you on cable? (which I can't get in my area)Tiscali Speed TestWould really appreciate it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 Each ISP has a share ratio, where you particular line is shared with x other customers. Usually this is around 20:1 (I.e. 20 people to one connection), but some have more, some less. Depending on what you have with Pipex, you may be able to get faster speeds by changing to someone with a better ratio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
