I use an isdn router to connect to the Internet.

Sometimes I connect through my company dialup
and sometimes (mostly for personal reasons) I connect through BTINTERNET.

btinternet are so frustrating.

What makes the problem for me worse is that I am a networking expert and I can debug and trace problems proving the source of the issue to btinternet. (at the moment the favourite is non responsive dns queries)

I do not think that any one else is going to be any better (other than a leased line solution)

Has any one else noticed that the service quality from BT seems to get realy bad over a short term and then is good for about a month before starting to degrade again?

It seems to me that the capacity of the plant is lagging the demand for the service.

And as for the service status reports....HA!

Even the ADSL solution will be over subscribed during peak times. So beware of the hype.
