its all the adsl connections using the old uk info structure of cruddy old coper cabling that have issues.
virgin's cable connections running on the old blueyonder/ntl fiber optic network systems have no really issues my 4mbs connection regally pulls 3.8-3.9 mbs on all the connection tester sites and i happily run multiple clients on the connection with a second pc and a laptop running over wifi on it.

yeah to clarify, we are hearing Virgin are testing traffic shaping software like tiscalis on the southeast part of the uk, Thats for the adsl customers , cable is unaffected.
My tiscrappy conection was out for about 2 hours from 8 pm tonight.
Please note all we're wanting on this thread is reported outages, not advice on swapping ISP , or how pipex, bulldog , eclipse,toucan etc are better so change to them, as most of the time they are owned by tiscali anyway.

Yeah I like those, you can only gets, I had same from Tiscarappy 5 meg at best. till their man came round for a visit, made a phone call to someone , and happily told me the line can take 7.5 all day and it did , till shaping time. I so think they have us all believing the crap about how far from exchange, long wires, extentions etc , when it seem all they have to do is actually turn the bugger on.

Virgin Media have excellent support newsgroups, try posting in virginmedia.support.broadband.cable with traceroutes to the server and other sites like www.bbc.co.uk & they will diagnose your connection and try to get it fixed.

From what i have hurd the ISP are supposedly limiting bandwidth to important internet programs.
But the question is who decides what and which are the important programs???
The uk is not going to be the only country effected in this matter. Apparently ever ISP around the world is starting to do this despite the fact your on cable or not. The reason for it is there hardlines are getting to much information passed thro them and there not capable of handling the data. So instead of upgrading there gear they limit us to bandwidth and program use on the net.
I know that the gadget show on channel 5 (uk ppl) have already started to petition this and think its wrong if you go to there webpage you can also sign the petition, and as a company CCP i suggest you write to all ISP and get eve on the important programs list your you will be losing losts of customers in the coming yr or so.

Ex Virgin customer here. From what i understand, between the hours of 4pm and midnight they cap everybodies usage so as to slow down users who are heavily downloading and slowing other users down and give everyone a "connection". Rumours going around are that they are using programme priorities but as per a few posts in this topic, who decides the priorities. Some say that it is down to the program to inform virgin, but i would hazard a guess they are just strangling port ranges and eve and vent unfortuneately are included in these.
I had ridiculously (think thats a word) slow connection speeds and incredibly high ping spikes on ventrilo making eve and comms unplayable. There is another thread in here somewhere called "virgin media screwed up Eve" or something like that which has a lot more information on this problem.
Hope you get it fixed, i had to move ISP's to sort it and everything runs fine now.

You obviosly have the gripe with ccp. I don't know if ccp are bothered about losing customers about this issue, I don't work for them.
With other ISP's being bought up by tiscali and more introducing traffic shaping , how long before all UK isps have Eve issues?

Originally by: Snaith stuff
nah i like the game and overall ccp has done a good job. i'm not angry at them i just think they're a bit funny at times.. and i'm definately not a fanboi that just says everythings allright when it isn't. that kind of thinking doesn't help jack sjit tbh..
bug after bug + horrendous bug reporting replies instills in you a definate sense of realism about what can and cannot be done by ccp within certain timeframes..
the caps were to illustrate two points without using more words.. hence saving time. quite more efficient, and no i wasn't trying to use caps_lock as cruise control for cool..
as for the buyup scenario.. change the isp till there's no option to (thus supporting the other isp's, giving less capital for tiscali). and then if that fails knock on ccp's door.
you can't expect them to fix it in the near future with them knowing so little about technical stuff as they do.. it takes them ages to just fix basic stuff for eve.. be realistic.

Don't really care, as I said earlier, was after people with outages posting and allows me to monitor the problem, we have got acknowlegement from Tiscali at least rather than being ignored. We are just nagging them at the mo. All the rest has been commented on ad nauseum, including changing isps.

I dont in anyway blame CCP for this, I obviously blame virgin. But they are in a better position to find out what is happening than I am.

According to what was on it, it was a nationwide problem.... been sitting here twidling my thumbs for the past hour or so waiting.
I dont have that much in the way of problems connecting to EVE, but due to the throttling, between peak hours (4 and midnight) surfing the net can become tiresome.

Virgin Media 20mb here in the north west... it went off last night for about 20 mins (again), and since it came back on, I've been disconnecting from EVE and getting really bad lag on Vent every 10 mins or so. Pain in the arse tbh . I'm going to resort to carrier pigeon to send my data, less downtime.

Here in UK we have a serious problem. It's not the ISPs mostly but a) the old BT network b) P2P.
Solutions? Ban completely P2P. 99% is illegal either way. I currently have Virgin cable 2mb without issues (had a 20mbit but I downgrated since I use it only for gaming). But the new house we are moving doesn't have cable network. :/ I might get a business account from ISPs who deal with companies only (Claranet?). Bit more expensive but it will do the job.

Its nothing to do with the old BT network. I had massive problems- then changed from Tiscali to a decent ISP and guess what? Problems almost completely vanished overnight.
DO NOT ASSUME THAT TISCALI ARE DOING SOMETHING JUST BECAUSE THEY HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED YOU. This is their standard strategy. They will tell you that engineers are being instructed, that the matter has been escalated etc etc. They will do this repeatedly, but achieve / do absolutely nothing. If you are with Tiscali adn want to play EvE in peak times you simply must change your ISP asap.

As I work for one of the aforementioned isp's ADSL tech support I can categorical tell you all that 95% of speed issues and latency issues are down to traffic shaping of those isp's and they donÆt care about you or what you think, so your best option is to change isp's even if it means paying to get out of the contract, you may get asked to do speed tests by the tech teams who can see whatÆs going on from the results, bottom line is if your getting good sync speeds and bad throughput its the isp and not your phone line and the tech guy on the other end of the phone can not do a thing about it and cant really tell you the isp he/she works for is crap and to change isp's.
Also for those of you unfortunate enough to live in the south east of the UK it has the worst internet in the county due to the dense population and over subscribed isp servers.
And although the BT lines in this country are old, a perfectly working 2 meg ADSL connection should serve any home user perfectly fine for downloading the odd game, film and online gaming.
If u are stuck in a contract one way to try and get a better speeds is to go over to a fixed rate service with your isp known as "DataStream" which is the old service that ADSL broadband was first on, as most ADSL users are on the newer "IpStream" service the DataStream servers have low load on them although BT are slowly phasing them out so you wouldnÆt be on it for long...
And the end of the day CHANGE ISP'S

Quite.
I would add that you should get your code- and move- and then decline to pay anythign they try to charge for the remaining months. When they chase you for it- tell them they are in breach of contract in failing to provide a useable service. Chances are they will give up sooner or later. I refused to pay my final month with Tiscali- and I heard nothing further about it.

What happens is that it costs them a tenner to chase someone up for money, given staff costs etc, so they usually dont bother and stockpile a load of "final months" in a batch and sell it to a debt collection agency who get commision only door knockers to ..... acquire the funds....

Latest from Tiscali. Quote " I do agree this has been dragging on, but I also understand some of the complexity surrounding traffic management. I have continued to champion this at various levels throughout the company including at a weekly meeting at HQ. This thread was originally set up by me to gauge the situation but also to provide hard data to the network team. It's doing its job as we are feeding this information back a few times a week. I'm sorry this is taking time, but rest assured, if I didn't think we could get somewhere with this, a) I wouldn't have started this sticky and b)I'd feed you a corporate line and close this off. Lets see what the network team come back to me with and when. Can I also encourage those that haven't yet added their complaint to this sticky to please do so. __________________ Regards

PLEASE PLEASE do not fall for it.
Every day you spend nagging tiscali, is another day wasted when you could be getting yourself onto a proper ISP and playing whatever game you feel like.
I was having these issues with Tiscali 18 months ago. I nagged, I was encouraged, reassured by technical people assuring me it was being looked into- and NOTHING changed.
They bank on people hanging around and putting up with it- and price the cost of a few leaving into their budgets.
Just move. They will not change anything.

TBF i've been with tiscali for almost 3 years (north east coast, scotland) with non of these issues, only time i lost eve were 3 days when the local exchange crapped out but they had it up and running by the weekend.
Tunneling is always a simple option, changing the eve port (does this work?) could be another. What i can say for definite is they never ask for complaints, it's out of character even by their standards. I'd be willing to give, at least one, of their employee's merit for this.
That doesn't discount alot of the other crap though. ***The EVE servers and their patches*** |

Tunneling is always a simple option, changing the eve port (does this work?) could be another. What i can say for definite is they never ask for complaints, it's out of character even by their standards. I'd be willing to give, at least one, of their employee's merit for this.
That doesn't discount alot of the other crap though.
Well- even if you take this one employee at face value (ignoring the fact that they consistently fob people off with this stuff and do nothing), then this one employee is (by his own admission) having to champion the issue in the company. Which shows you just how much will exists in the company to respond to customers concerns- ie none.

Originally by: Sha4d13 PLEASE PLEASE do not fall for it.
Every day you spend nagging tiscali, is another day wasted when you could be getting yourself onto a proper ISP and playing whatever game you feel like.
I was having these issues with Tiscali 18 months ago. I nagged, I was encouraged, reassured by technical people assuring me it was being looked into- and NOTHING changed.
They bank on people hanging around and putting up with it- and price the cost of a few leaving into their budgets.
Just move. They will not change anything.
You are not being very helpful here, we have finally got a specific person in charge of their broad band support forums interested and asking for our complaints and you are fighting against us. I encourage anyone with Tiscali to post on the provided sticky, and at least give this man a chance. As previously stated we have seen it all about swapping ISP's, that hasn't worked , so we are trying this. The subject of what is wrong has been thrashed to death, please just post the outages as requested. Thanks.

Snaith- works for Tiscali?
Seriously mate- you are doing yourself and others a disservice. You do not have someone at Tiscali doing something, you have someone at Tiscali SAYING he is doing something but being utterly unable to give you any specifics as to any action which might be taken, or when.
I have heard it all before- 18 months ago. And the problems remain.
I am not fighting against anyone- thats ridiculous. Im urging people not to waste their time and energy, like I did, trying to nail jelly to the wall...

If I start a thread asking for something and you post saying don't bother how is that not fighting against me and what I'm doing. Please stop posting and hijacking my thread or go make your own telling people not to bother. Thanks mate.
