This is BT's last chance, or I am leaving

Over the last week my broadband has gone down from 5 megs to 0.5 megs. The internet isn't even useable any more. I am extremely unhappy and considering I am paying over £30 pounds and you would think that I might get a decent internet connection.
I rang up their support today and I was told that my IP profile would increase and they would call me back in 4 hours and it would be better.
They call be back and it's no better. I don't know what they did but they obviously didn't do much. The person on the phone says it will take more time to fix and he will call another time. I get a call randomly at about 7PM asking if the speed is better and they tell me that the IP profile needs increasing and it will take 68 hours to do. I told them right from the beggining that my IP profile but they obviously don't listen and waste a day trying to diagnose something which I have already told them.
There is no way that I am waiting 68 hours for somebody to put my IP profile up. I don't even get told, "sorry about this." They just presume I will be okay with an internet speed of 0.5 mbps which makes the internet unuseable.
I am extremely hacked off and I have emailed BT's CEO but I doubt he will reply. I would really like this sorted or BT can say goodbye to my £30 a month for phone and broadband.
I would have run a BT speedtest but it's telling me that's it's not available on my number for some stupid reason. So I'll just leave you my line stats. I am using a Netgear DGN2000. I know the stats say I have only been connected for  10 minutes but I have been trying to do endless things to make the IP profile improve. Some things I have been told to do by BT and some I have done my self.

Thank you.

edit. See message 12.
I guess the above is aimed at me.
You can take it how you like, I'm only replying to comments by the OP on this thread only.
BTW, I would recommend any ideas that could/would increase an IP profile.
As I wrote "Although I've not been following any threads on this" means just that, I don't know what has been recommended on any other threads.
Nor do I know what the OP has been trying, which may have had a negative impact, possibly increasing the healing time.
My first reply on this thread was only advising the OP that the CEO reads any email's sent to him personally, when sent at the weekend.
I can see on this thread that the OP has made contact with the HD and has been told that the IP profile would increase.
Then the OP has been told that more time was needed.
Maybe BT have been trying at their end, whilst the OP has been trying at his end.
I'd of thought that by resetting it multiple times isn't going to help but that would depend on how many resets have been carried out and when the reset was carried out.
The reason I suggested "best to leave it (the hub/router) well alone and connected 24/7" is based on the OP's contact with the HD.
Also "If there was a fault, which may have been fixed, it should sort itself out..." means that BT may well have reset the IP Profile and that the IP profile should then sort itself out, if the connection isn't being constantly reset.
Anyway, based on my own experience
My IP profile took a dive
Called India as it was quicker
Asked why has my IP profile dropped
Was told it'll be increased within 24 hours
Didn't touch anything at my end
With in 12 hours, all back to normal
Got a call back
Pleased as pig in poop was I
Although I don't need to explain myself to anyone, I hope this answers your Q.

  • Problems with printing in Illustrator CS5 - Last Chance

    So here's my problem:
    I own a small scale graphic design studio and from time to time I print letterheads, business cards and other fun stuff from my printer.
    Few weeks back the text starts to look "jagged/pixelated" around the edges and the same for vector artwork. (For example see www.tohei.dk, the logo there somewhat represents what comes out of my printer, though not quite as bad). It is mostly with diagonal lines like in the letter M or K.
    I've spent countless hours (and paper and ink) trying to solve the problem. I've even called Adobe Technical Support in Denmark, but no help there.
    The strange thing is that in Photoshop, Microsoft Word and other programs the print is as perfect as ever, so that eliminates the printer as the problem. It is ONLY in Illustrator the problem occurs. I've run tests on my old windows computer with CS4 and there is no problem there either.
    The printer is a Canon IP4700 and is 4 months old. I run MAC OS X 10.6.3 and Design Premium CS5.
    I think that about covers it. This is my last chance as I have no idea how to fix it!!
    Really hope that someone can help!

    Save as PDF and print from Acrobat.
    The Canon printer is not a Postscript printer, therefor it prints the low resolution preview of any Illustrator file. You need a RIP (Raster Image Processor). Acrobat is a software RIP which will translate the postscript data to a raster format yielding better print results. The reason Photoshop, Word, etc print fine is they are sending raster data to the printer, not postscript data.

    Hi jdogg5582,
    I believe hockeycanuckjc was simply confused with a previous post you had made regarding a separate issue related to a movers' coupon. I'm sorry you've had such extreme difficulties to say the least in getting this taken care of, especially when you were assured at the time of purchase that you wouldn't have to return and re-purchase to be eligible for the promotion.
    I'm reviewing the complete details of your case and will follow up with you tomorrow via private message. You should receive an email when this private message is sent; however, you can check private messages by logging into the forum and clicking on the envelope icon in the upper right-hand corner. I'm confident we can come to an agreeable solution.
    Thank you for giving us another chance to make this right. I'll be in touch.

  • My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows).  The key behaves the same for the laptop keyboard and for an external Apple keyboard?  This just started in last week after 6 months of use

    My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows). 
    The left shift key behaves the same on the laptop keyboard and on an external Apple keyboard. 
    This just started in last week after 6 months of use.  The right shift key and other keys on the keyboard all appear to work correctly.
    Suggestions greatly appreciated.

    I have a solution to this issue now after a discussion with Apple Support.  Some where in the last few weeks, there was a change in the key that would do a Show Desktop under the Mission Control settings in the System Preferences.  Even though the key sequence that was shown for the Show Desktop setting did not include the Left SHift key, by changing this first to having no key sequence and applying that and then changing it back to the F11 key, the Left SHift key issue that I was having has cleared up.
    A second issue that was uncovered was that the SSD had some issues (uncovered when I ran Disk Utility using the Repair Disk key).  I had to restart and use the Disk Utility through the Command R sequence to get to the stand alone Disk Utility.  The SSD appears to be running better as a result as well.
    Hope that this is of use to someone else in the future.

  • Lost a 2 hard drives, have 7 k photos on a touch that I need to load on IMAC with a new hard drive, how do I do it.  Just never went from a Touch to iMac.  I have the cable hooked up and then what, I don't want to mess up,my last chance to save 7k pics!

    Lost my hard drive and also an Ipad, but have 7 k photos on a Touch that I need to load on fixed IMAC with a new hard drive, how do I do it. (There were more photos than the 7k, but they were saved on other drives, thank goodness).  7K pohotos on the Touch are no where else, must be saved!  Just never went from a Touch to iMac.  I have the cable hooked up and then what, I don't want to mess up,my last chance to save 7k pics!  New Aperture and IPhoto on IMAC with no other photos loaded on the new hard drive yet.

    I'd ask in the iTouch forum where there are more iTouch users there than here and they should know how to off load the photos.  It might take a 3rd party app.

  • Want to create analysis for this year week vs last year week

    All,
    My requirement is to create an analysis for the passed week number of this year vs same last year week no.
    So basically user will pass the week no. and report should display the passed week no. this year sales number plus same week no. last year sales number.
    How can I achieve this?
    Thanks

    If you ask like this ..I would say like using presentation variable for week
    use measure with exp like
    CASE WHEN WEEK=@{WK} AND Time.year=VALUEOF("PREVIOUS_YEAR") THEN #sales END.
    In this case week is from your subject area and PREVIOUS_YEAR is rep variable you might have it.
    there are other options to get output, need details about your rpd and value of week.

  • Last chance: 11 days left to upgrade from Photoshop 7

    From Senior Photoshop Program Manager

    Last chance to move up from PS7
    With the CS3 product cycle, Adobe instituted a "3 versions back" policy on upgrades. That is, you can upgrade to the current version of Adobe tools from any version up to three versions back. In the case of CS3 that meant Photoshop 7, CS, and CS2. With CS4 it's of course CS through CS3. The upshot is that if you want to upgrade from Photoshop 7, the window is closing, and
    you've got until October 15 to do so.

  • I am unable to fully download iPhoto on my iPad 2. It downloads nearly to the end and then I get a message that says"unable to download at this time." This time has now lasted two weeks. What do I do? Many thanks!

    How do I download iPhoto to my iPad 2 iOS 6? It refuses to fully download. Towards the end of the download, I get a message that says "unable to download at this time." This time has now lasted two weeks. I already have iPhoto on my MacBook Pro. Many thanks.

    Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Query item not sold per customer for this month compare with last month
