I am one of the Tiscali 4!! But I did change from IE6 to IE7 about the same time as P/F moved over, I have had speed tests done by Tiscali, I have done loads of stuff on my pc all without result... Tonight I changed back to IE6 and my speed issue has gone

See if anyone can beat teh record we had on PF in about 2005 of 3500 pieces of seperate spyware on his PC. Damned if i can remember who it was now,....

Pah. 3,500.

One machine at work last year... 35,748 only 5,000 were tracing cookies.

In this case, we rebuilt the machine as it was easier than trying to fix it

Seriously though, Tiscali have been spot on for me, this is the first issue I have had being with them. Maybe it will be corrected soon???? Funnily the old PF wasnt bad for me before with them. Only went off now and again.

Yep last couple days, all day whatever time

Aint had to many not loading pages, BUT what I been getting is it looks like the page has loaded but when you scroll down the page and hit a pic, it, well sort of runs , becomes like just a block of colour and then cant scroll up or down just locks up, untill the page then loads properly, blocks of colour disapear and all is good, but taking ages to load pages anyway.
Just accidently went back to the "last" pages from 2004, and they seem to be ok, dont know what relevance that has to anything

Oh and YEP on a Tiscalli up to 8mb connection, altho only normally see 2.5-3mb from it due to distance blah blah blah, so looking like it a Tiscalli related problem (NO surprise there )

traceroutes seem to reveal a common problem with the last hop between Verio (an Internet provider) and eUKhost (where PF lives.)
Thats what he posted so is Tiscali linked with Verio I wonder ??

Pipex 8mb

I've had this twice in the last 10 mins

The connection has timed out

The server at passionford.com is taking too long to respond.

Pipex is now sold to Tiscali (which is why we are struggling)

But why just on PF ??

No problems for me on my Plus Net 8mb connection.

Sometimes it feels like the whole internet slows down but that isn't Passionford's fault.
