Evening Speed issues adsl2

[Catnip]

I enjoy watching Iview and Sbsondemand in the evenings, and have had no trouble with streaming until recently.
During the last week the it has become impossible to watch anything of this nature as the speed is so slow (buffering every
30 seconds). Is anyone else having similar problems and can anything be done to fix it? My plan is T20-2-REGION.
Cheers, Catnip

Hi,

In order to investigate this further, could you please conduct few speed tests during the time when you experiencing the slow speeds and send them to ''residentialsupport@exetel.com.au''.

This problem is actually very common even when the net is running well - I've pretty well given up on ABC Iview now.

The foolproof solution is to capture or download the video data for personal use, which is pretty straightforward for anyone with suitable domestic video hardware or just basic command line computer skills. That adds up to a lot of people. There was a scripted app for everyone available up until recently but the copyright monopolists appear to have suppressed it - http://delimiter.com.au/2012/09/19/abc- ... ver-iview/ so unfortunately I can't tell you the method. All the software needed is common open-source stuff relating to html and flash.

We have been having this problem for a couple of weeks now in Melb, times mid evening, it could not be slower, obviously pick up speed overnight, our speed is 1500 & we get about 300 at this time every night.

Hi drewey10,

Would you please be able to conduct a few speed tests during different time of the day and email the results to residentialsupport@exetel.com.au , so that we can investigate this further

I'm having issues too in the afternoon peak hours into the evening. Works fine almost all other times. Very similar symptoms to the underprovisioning issues I experiences a few years ago.

See this example:



compared to later in the evening a few months ago:

Here's your answer: http://www.exetel.com.au/res_main.php

Exetel is running out of capacity. Not happy Jan!!! I have just churned from Internode, whilst I was paying a premium I had a premium service. The pain of poor performance is definitely starting to out way the sweetness of the price.

This is not good enough Exetel!

I have also experienced performance issues since returning from holidays this week.

Same test, 11:20pm.

I'm having speed issues too. The techs did a line check and everything and found nothing wrong. Are you guys on optus based plans? I'm in parramatta. I'm wondering if changing to AAPT will make things better? I can't see the option to change my adsl to the AAPT or telstra ones though. Is this possible to do? Is there a big fee involved?
