AAARRRRRGHHHHHH
THEY ARE PISSING ME OFF TO NO END!
I'm trying to connect without Packet Loss (basicly things aren't getting through and I can't play online games because of it). But EVERY FUCKING time I connect i get packet loss on a Poopex server.
I phoned Pipex up and they say there's nothing wrong with their servers.... I emailed them proof that it IS their servers but they're having none of it, I have also pointed out that other people I know on Pipex are having exactly the same problem. The problem is caused by packet shaping... which means they're effectively limiting my connection but my line still reports the correct speed, but not all the packets are getting through, hense the packet loss.
They said to me they do not have a packet shaping policy, which to be honest is complete and utter Bull Shit! EVERY night from 5-10pm I get terrible loss. And it's between those hours that I like to go and play games online.
I can re-connect the internet to get onto a different connection server which comes up as clean, but tonight I've re-connected 22 times so far, with no luck at all! Internet browsing is fine, but I can't go on any online games at all
Now I had no problem with them, until The Hoff did that advert for them... Since then they've got too popular and cannot cope with the demand, and don't want to admit it.
I want out of it, but my dad doesn't want to loose the free phone calls we get aswell as his email accounts
So I have 1 thing to say to Pipex, which I won't otherwise I'll be left without internet... and that is FUCK YOU POOPEX!!!
Bastards.
And that's not even the worst of my problems right now.
