Hello
I am still here.
I've been without wi-fi and phoneline since storm Darragh which hit Wales on the 6th of December. Engineers are on the case, but there have been so many trees downed by the wind, its taking ages for them to fix.
I can only get wi-fi to do my job etc in other locations.

The day has finally arrived. I now have wifi and phone line at home. Its only taken since December the 7th.

My upload and download speed also seem to have improved slightly.
I'm sure its pitifully poor compared to what you all have, but for me, that is an improvement.
Normally its about 3 download and 0. something upload.

It's now 2025 and i still have a max of 6mbs out here in the WA forest. With 2 20-something "kids" still at home and a wife that loves to run a TV and tablet at the same time it's a hard knock life out here in the smoking lounge (far from the wifi) with my ancient little laptop.

Once in a while i get agitated and go repower the wifi. If i'm close and reconnect first, i can run back out here and maybe get priority connection. Xbox's in the house be damned!
