So, is my modem duff? Nearly end of 18mth contract...

Righto... so on 28th January I was getting DL speed of ~34Mbps and UL of ~6Mbps (wirelessly).
By 1st February, I was down to ~2-4Mbps DL and ~4-6Mbps UL (wirelessly).
Tested from different devices, same results. UL speed hasn't gone down (much) but DL speed has fallen by ~90%
speedtester.bt.net - IP profile 38715/10000. Best efforts tests in line with above.
Have tested with both wireless and wired now with similarly diabolical results. So what's the issue? Modem?
Line quality for voice is still perfect as always, IP profile is still as-was. Tried different routers, no change.
I was installed 30th July 2010 and I'm approaching the end of my 18mth term now. Seriously tempted to change supplier in spite of added costs following my whole Infinity experience.
EDIT: Actually you know, my contract's up as of end of January. Will BT bother trying to keep me as a customer?

@Angry Dan This is a customer to customer self help forum the only BT presence here are the forum moderators your supplier of course is your choice i suggest you post the full bt speed test results then contact the forum mods for help

  • T-code for ending the active contract in RE-Fx

    Hi Experts,
    Is there any separate transaction to end a RE contract.
    Currently I'm terminating the contract, by manually entering the valid to date in the genral data tab page of the t-code RECN.
    Is there any other way available to end an active contract?
    Kindly assist.
    Thanks & Regards
    Shantanu

    Shantanu,
    Terminating Contracts is a Business scenario and usually a Business process is defined for such scenario. What I mean is if you wish to terminate a Contract you may have to execute series of steps in SAP related to your contract, example terminating Objects, taking care of outstanding payments/receivables etc.
    I could not find a Valid to date on Contracts General Tab which you quoted. But if you are talking about Contract end date on Terms tab then that is the expiration date of the term or the Contract. Contract will expire on that date, but you can certainly renew the Contract.
    If you wish to terminate a Contract, I would suggest to execute Notice on Contract and populate NOTICE PER date. Depending on your requirement you can choose to give notice on Objects too. This will mark this Contract as Canceled. This is an event and you can use it to control subsequent tasks in your business process. For this process you can set up Notification and reminders too.
    There is a Notice Tool which you can use for mass termination too.
    Thanks,
    Jag

  • Cannot add items to DOCK. Dock bar near end?

    I cannot add items to the dock and the dock bar is near the end of the dock listing. I cannot move the bar.

    Please clearify...
    You can move the doc with the Dock system preferences to left, bottm, or right.  Or using something like TinkerTool vertically left side or right side.
    As for adding items, generally applications are to the left of the divider (toward the right end) and other stuff to the right of the divider.  You add stuff by dragging it into the dock and option drag it out to remove it (or control click and use the options contextual). 
    Are thses things not working for you?

  • Nearing end of trial CR Dev and likely to reject it...

    Post Author: a9192shark
    CA Forum: Charts and Graphs
    I am nearing the end of my trial period of CR Developers edition which I am using with VS2005.
    I have posted to this forum to try and solve a problem (http://technicalsupport.businessobjects.com/cs/forums/thread/820.aspx) with x-y graphs.  I have received no response to my questions and therefore I must conclude that CR is not able to produce the simple xy charts that I require.
    Since posting that enquiry I have also tried to create a line chart of data and there does not appear to be a way of making a line chart have a time axis (I can select calander and choose the smallest time step as days) but I need to plot data for each minute of the day and have the axis labelled as hh:mm.
    This is a shame because I have found other aspects of CR report design to be fairly intuitive.
    I am likely to resort to the Reporting Services in VS2005 as it will do the graphs (but I fear the grouping is not as simple).
    Before rejecting CR I would like to know if this is a limitation of CR or of my knowledge of CR.
    Any thoughts on CR graphing time series data and scatter data?
    Thanks,
    Alan.

    Hello,
    I am not sure which part of my post you are referring to so I will deal with teh time based data.
    The data is simply one record per minute for several parameters.  I wish to plot each record as a new point on the line as I would in Excel.  I have 1440 records (1 per minute of the day) and wish each record to be the next point on the line.  I then want to label the x axis using hh:mm.
    I think that this is linked to the problem with XY graphs.  It appears that you must summarise the data to use a graph in CR, I do not want a summary, I want the actual data to be plotted.
    I look forward to a response.

  • Re: ipod touch not backingup gets very near end then beeps and shut off sync request i have update itunes already as per various response seen your suggestion will be  deeply appreciated thank you please help : )

    hello all thnaks for creating this support group
    i have been  trying the various replies seen except the full restore i want to avoid that
    my ipod gets to very near the end of backup line step 1 then the ipod beeps sveral time and then itunes cuts off the sync process i have already updated itune and it is  still not syncing i need to sync especally for  the Mobilnoter and alos now the pdf or books ar not loading due  to the back up file not fiinishing
    is there a way to not have to " back up " file as i need what i have written in mobilenoter  ??
    any suggestion welcome and deelpy appreciated
    thank you from clairebear
    ps the ipod says software version 4.2.1

    You can't sync without a backup taken.
    Try to delete the ipod backup, it seems that iTunes can't read it anymore. Before you do, make sure to back up the folder, in case you need it again.
    The folder where your backup data is stored changes depending on the computer's operating system. Since iTunes only keeps one backup per device, you should ensure the backup folder is included in your periodic data backup routine.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP,  Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.
    copied from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    After you backed up the folder, delete the backup from the list in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices.
    Then try again to sync.

  • CP8 flash crash in IE8 near end of course

    My Captivate 8 course (published for Flash) keeps crashing in IE8 near the end of the course:
    I removed two slides from the end of the course, republish and did not receive this error. The problem seems to be related to the course duration. How can I resolve this issue without removing content from my course?

    After some extensive testing, we have confirmed that the error only occurs in IE8 and does not occur in later versions of IE. Deleting the slide and recreating it did not help. The only thing that is effective is shortening the duration of the course by deleting slides (it doesn't seem to matter which slides). Also, the crash does not always occur on exactly the same slide. It crashes near the end of the course, but the slide it crashes on varies between test cycles. The link below suggests that the icon means this is a Flash memory error caused by the browser being unable to support the Flash content. Now that I have more information, I would like to re-phrase my post in hopes of getting the attention of Adobe. Is there a way to delete this post so I can start from scratch? (I know people don't like it when you double post but my understanding of the issue has changed since I first wrote it) What do you suggest?

  • Position keyframes for titles not acting properly; keep moving backwards near end keyframe

    I have no clue what in teh world is going on here. i will set a keyframe in the beginning for the titles initial start point. Move ahead 2 seconds. Set a keyframe. Move the title to where I want it. Play it back, and then right before the end keyframe, the title will go the complete opposite direction if I have another keyframe ahead of it I want it to go to. So yeah, it moves back then moves forwards to the next keyframe. Please help me understand this lunacy.

    Having recently encountered this issue, I searched the web for a solution and stumbled upon this thread, which to my surprise was not only left unanswered, but also seemed to be the only search result that was directly relevant to my problem.  Luckily, I was able to adapt some advice from a similar situation.  Since I finally discovered a solid method, I figured I would offer my knowledge to anyone else treading the same path as me.
    I guess they call something like this a "wobbly" keyframe.   In After Effects, someone gave the advice to right click and change the temporal interpolation to LINEAR.  In premiere, I noticed that they were ALREADY linear, but then I recalled Shooternz post about a spatial ease.
    Highlight ALL the keyframes, right click, then select Spatial Interpolation and click on Linear.  This should solve the issue.  You can then add eases and such to meet your goals.
    I knew from the beginning that it must have been an invisible knot in the bezier curves.  I pulled the bars in every direction, but all it did was tighten or loosen the knot, causing the motion to speed up or slow down, but it would always hit the knot and reverse before continuing forward. You know how Illustrator will create crazy-looking lines when you try to add too many points with strong curves?  Well the same logic applies to this, but Premiere has a much more difficult interface when dealing with bezier curves.  In other words, by getting rid of the extra curves instead of trying to fix them like you can in Illustrator, it fixes the problem much more easily.
    I hope I helped to clarify the issue and help you understand the logic of what went wrong, so you can move on now and perhaps adapt this knowledge to future obstacles.

  • 4500-E series .. is it nearing end of life?

    Is there a way to find out when Cisco may be planning to obsolete the 4500-E series switches? Or alternately, is there a way to get assurance from Cisco that they aren't planning to make it end of life for X number of years yet?
    It concerns me to see ominous signs like the high performance "Supervisor Engine 6-E" for the chassis going obsolete. How long until the whole E-series chassis line goes obsolete too?
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/switches/catalyst-4500-series-switches/eol__C51-726869.html
    Also, I do not know how to tell what products are Cisco's newest and therefore with the longest life yet to come.

    Hello, dmahlko1.
    There is no available reference yet on when will the whole 4500-E go EoL. However, once a part number gets announced as EoL, there is usually 4-6 years (varies by device/solution) before it losses all support or becomes completely obsolete. Are you looking for a replacement/current model for your existing?
    Let me know if you have other concerns or e-mail ([email protected]) me directly. Kind regards. 

  • Audio out of sync near end of 2 hr import of hi 8 tape

    importing old Hi 8 into imovie 09, by the end of the 2 hr import, the audio is out of sync with the video when i play it in imovie. Any suggestions?

    Import in smaller chunks of data (under ten minutes each).
    It may be caused by 12 bit audio samples in the source files.

  • Imovie hangs at the nearly end of a project

  • Weird, Nearing end of AppleCare

    This has been a solid performer for almost 3 years but, now becoming "buggy".
    1) Backlit K/B stops lighting...Apple genius finds nothing but, says we could send it in
    2) Every few days loses my B/T mouse connection and has difficulty reconnecting
    3) Lost LAN connection despite all our other MBPs & Imacs connecting as usual.
    AppleCare ends in about a month and I'm reluctant to send it in because my old P/B came back with more problems whenever it went in for service.
    Is this built in obsolescense? Once problems develop, it's downhill from there?

    You are foolish not to send it in. If the backlight on the keyboard does not come on at all how can the Genius Bar say there is nothing wrong, something does not ring true. Was the Genius you were working with blind. No Lights in the keyboard means No Lights in the keyboard. and that is not what it should be.
    So you have 2 choices.
    1) Send it in and get it fixed. And keep sending it in until it is completely fixed.
    OR
    2) Do nothing until your Applecare runs out then come here and complain about how you were mistreated and live with a defective product.

  • Burned DVD images only appear sharp near end of loaded time in screen

    Hi, I am new to the list. I have produced a slide show in iDVD with still photos, music and some video. Everything is fine except when I view the final presentation on my TV or with a DVD projector.
    The Problem:
    The images load and transition fine except they appear somewhat bitmapped or not sharp until just before the transition to the next slide then it sharpens. This happens with every image. It's as though the image is loading and then finally loads at the last half second to full resolution. Because of this the photos lack any detail until the very last second.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Yup, and some transitions are worse than others. To avoid the problem you have two choices: 1. don't use any transitions in iDVD slideshows, or 2. (which is the best approach) create your slideshows in iPhoto or iMovie. (There are also third party photos to slideshow applications, but give iPhoto or iMovie a try first.)

  • Encore Crashes near end of burn process

    Hello,
    I am trying to burn a DVD in Encore CS4 on my MAC. I created this DVD using Premiere and then used Adobe Dynamic Link to bring the Sequences to Encore. The DVD is 13 chapters and about 1 hour 12 minutes. After creating the DVD in Encore, I was able to burn one copy. I noticed some items that needed to be updated so I made the changes in Premiere and then attempted to open the .NCOR file to bring the changes in. Many times, Encore will hang up when opening the file - I able to get the file open and made some changes, and burned one copy... Another viewing lead to so final changes. I am now trying to burn 10 copies of this DVD. Again after making the changes in Premiere, many times Encore will hang up when opening the .NCOR file. The couple times I have gotten it open, it has transcoded for 12-14 hours and then crashed prior to burning anything.
    This is incredibly frustrating!
    I did try to create a new Encore project using the menu and importing the same sequences as in the first project, but Encore hung up when bringing in the first sequence via Adobe Dynamic Link.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Ted

    I am now trying to burn 10 copies of this DVD. Again after making the changes in Premiere, many times Encore will hang up when opening the .NCOR file. The couple times I have gotten it open, it has transcoded for 12-14 hours and then crashed prior to burning anything.
    This does not fix your transcoding/build problems, but build to a folder or image or folder, then use that as the source (rather than the project), to avoid needing to burn one more and having the whole build hassle again.
    Many times, Encore will hang up when opening the file - I able to get the file open and made some changes, and burned one copy.
    On windows, so other issues may be present. I was only briefly on CS4 (on WinXP), and more on CS5 (on Win7). I found that some projects just had a very long load time - they appeared to hang, but did not.
    I had one sequence (only the one from a particular project) that would hang. I found I could work around that one if I opened it in Premiere before opening the Encore project.
    it has transcoded for 12-14 hours and then crashed prior to burning anything.
    If it is a transcode problem, this won't help, but I prefer doing a "transcode now" so that that step is separate from the build.

  • Compressor - full lock-up near end of processing...

    I am using Compressor to process my videos - recently has started crashing with less than a minute to go on the processing.
    We are talking a FULL system lock up - where I have to physically power down and power back up.
    I have reparied permissions - re-rendered my clips in FCPX.
    Anything else I can try before I call hardware support?
    13" MacBook Pro (not with me at the moment - but it is less than a year old...) running Snow Leopard

    I know nothing about how FCE handles Keynote transitions.
    I can tell you that if you have a green render line in the Timeline there's an issue with that clip/s.
    Double check that your incoming clips/Keynote stuff exactly match the Sequence settings, video and audio.
    Also double check that your Sequence audio is correct. FCE allows 32 or 48kHz seqeunces that if mis-matched are a prime sync error candidate.
