i am also from milton keynes. guess pipex upgraded the exchange here or something, cos that is about the same time that things went wrong for me 4pm saturday. well just got on this morning to set a long skill and will be phoning pipex when i finish work today to get a mac so i can change provider.
is a real shame as up until this point pipex has been very good but i am not willing to mess around trying to persuade them to let me play eve.
On a side note CCP should probably get their lawyers to have a word with tiscali about lost revenue because depending how long it takes to get this sorted i might have to postpone payment of my account till i have a new provider, also if someone wanted to do the trial and can't play, they are probably not going to start playing eve. ---------------------------------------

As far as CCP ar concerned it is nothing to do with them, they have made it clear several times.
Please do make sure Pipex know why you are changinging, and avoid other Tiscali related companies, do check who owns your new ISP and further to that who's systems they actually use.
Happy Eveing.

Well it's been going on for at least 6 months now. It shows the quality of their technical people are if the can't resolve the problem. I seems pretty obvious that their routers etc are set to block ports at specific times.
BTW I worked for Tiscali for about 4 months a few years ago and they are possibly the worst company I have ever worked for.

Please look at the tiscali stickies for what the problem is. They do not block specific ports, and we don't want people going down the wrong path and demanding 26000 be opened all over again.

Stress the cable, as the adsl service is as notorious as Tiscali

Well pipex was just fine for me over the last three years. Tiscali comes along and now I cant even log onto Eve. Also my download rate has halved at peak times now.
Mac code requested
Try ADSL24? Or even (I never thought I'd recommend them) BT!
Good luck!

Edited by: Motorleague on 22/01/2008 18:28:19 Pipex user here, got to 5pm and I lost connection. Lo and behold I am presented with 'checking status' on the login screen. I will be shortly venting my displeasure on a Pipex customer service (oh the irony) operative.

Likewise here..... 
(although a newbie on Eve, never had any problem with any online game elsewhere either...)

I've just left Pipex and joined plusnet who seem great so far. Connection is good, their website clearly states "this is not an unlimited connection" and they even publish a basic version of their QoS policy so you can see how it will be shaped. I'm impressed not to be fed the same load of BS most ISPs are dishing out.
Plus have recently merged with Madasafish I believe so they'd probably be another good bet.

Originally by: Mallikanth I knew Pipex had changed hand but I didn't realise to who 
Well, so far I'm lucky (That's done it )
Oh well only another 11 months on my contract (I just upgraded to a static IP so contract gets renewed). 
/me crosses fingers for the next 11 months...
Guess what  Yep - They got me too now. Pipex sucks big time. I can't even get a MAC code outside of Office hours!
