No , for some reason the speed has been up and down for a few days now (noticed this browsing on the phone) - D/load speed is *usually* between 240k & 340k - but recently it has been pootling along a speeds not much faster than normal GPRS

I used my (plain £7.50) W & W for some nodem action while I was waiting for sky broadband last week , I wonder if this has been detected and they are reducing my speed because of this ?
Having said that , just done a couple more tests and am getting speeds of 250kbps - surely a restriction would bring it down to a max of something like 64 - 128kbps to be worthwhile for them ?
