Title: Slow Internet?
Post by: ideasguy on August 26, 2013, 03:44:17 PM

Is it just me, or are others experiencing very slow internet responses today?

We've not noticed any problems through our Sky Broadband provider George.

Is it just certain websites you've visited or all of them?  Some sites can be busier than others, as you're aware, and can slow down access times but if it's all of them then it sounds like your ISP could be experiencing technical difficulties.

I use BT infinity. It could be extra activity due to Bank Holiday,

Email send and receive is playing up (using Outlook)- that's my biggest gripe.
Surfing is OK again now.

Edited later:
Spoke too soon. Slow response to refreshing this forum site.
