The option to change the order of access did not work but I will try the Metric change and see what happens but this is getting a bit beyond this silver surfer. It may just be easier to disconnect each time I start up and actually I don't think it makes much difference to the download speed. Thanks for your help it really is appreciated.
Most welcome ... It should not make a lot of difference to your Bandwidth .... All depends on what Package you have ..
I pay for unlimited download and on a good day I am getting 10 Mbps download speed so quite happy. Unfortunately occasionally I get .03 Mbps or even nothing and BT can't give me an explanation. Having just moved house I have better things to do than go into battle with BT who don't seem to be able to help. Thank heavens for the forums.
Thanks for your contribution, much appreciated.
Seems you have moved House just in time as they are about to hike up their prices yet again ... You should be covered by your Contract ...
I got quite a good deal from BT. Broadband £8 a month for first 6 months then £16 for next 12 months and £18 thereafter. I was paying about £21 with Virgin. I just can't find anyone at BT who knows what they are talking about without "referring to a colleague" and not phoning back when promising to do so and that is after a 30 minute wait for my call to be answered. The online chat isn't any better. I lost my connection for two days and eventually they discovered there was a fault at the exchange but when it was rectified they told me that it was "JUST ONE OF THOSE THINGS"!
Yeah I used to be with them but had a very bad experience ... Then switched to Virgin which has been all good so far they have a loos of Service policy which means if your net is down for so long you get a discount ... Has never happened yet though ... But pleased to see you got a good deal :)
