Originally by: Fanjita I use cfosspeed traffic shaping software to set the priority of my packets for the different programs i use and have had no problems with my bband speeds im also with virginmedia might be worth a try for you peeps having trouble.
I am having recent trouble with my Virign ADSL as well, although I would not consider where I live (York) the East of England as mentioned by the OP. Unfortunately, I have only recently joined this service so it would be tricky to move to another provider.
I am going to try the method quoted above, but if there is something CCP can do this would be very appreciated.

If the problem is not resolved soon then I will try and move provider, but I will need to get proof of what is actually happening. Are there any official statements by VM or confirmation from a reliable source that I can use?
I don't doubt the statements made here, I just think I will need something better to use as my evidence.

I have been trying to play outside the supposed throttling periods (4pm - midnight), but the connection still seems bad. Maybe a little bit better but still nowhere near how it was playing for me a week or so ago.

I'm still getting problems with Virgin media no matter what time of day. Is this still affecting others? It seems to be random as well, sometimes its resonable but then it will not respond for as much as 1 minute. I am going to raise this to Virgin media but I would like to know if others still have problems or have in fact now got a better connection.

Originally by: Jovienus Mate change your port to tcp/udp 3724 you can do this in trinity by editing the prefs.ini file. That new port should bepass the problem.
Seems to work for me. Thank-you

Good to hear, I'm having other issues with my connection at the moment (see above) so this might actually mean we have a fix.
To confirm I'm not just doing it wrong, because I see no improvement right now, it's a case of simply changing the prefs.ini to read "port=3724" yes?
Yes I simply changed the port in the prefs.ini file, might be a coincidence but I have been ok now all yesterday. Maybe there are other values that you could try, but I do not know what they would be. If you are being throttled as a heavy user (I was for a week), this might not help. Although they say that they just slow you down a bit, it was far worse then that, I couldn't accesss all of the web or consitently retrive e-mails etc. They don't inform you thet they are doing it either, you have to ask them.
