On the upside, i can get download speed of 37Mb on a good day and upload of 7.5Mb which sounds brilliant until you realise it often takes several minutes to actually connect and hold that connection!

After todays wet stuff dropping out of the sky, i know i'll have even more trouble than usual in a few days time once it soaks down to the cable level underground.
That is odd - your broadband speed is exactly the same as here in Corby - I wonder why it is so unstable? In Norfolk the slow speed was due to the cabinet being 8 km away - and the bit between being copper wire. It was sort of stable though, the only thing that really got affected by the connection dropping out once or twice a week was the C/H thermostat.

What a world we live in, all this was beyond our imagination 30 years ago.

Stay safe.
