If it was consistently bad, I would have expected something like that, but it's not. At 1am, or 9am, I can get most of the full 2mbit/s, yet by about 11am it's starting to slow down, and by 4pm it's shocking. 8pm last night I was getting 7.5kB/s and below. Rest assured that I have been through all the usual modem/username/line checks... the question was really more around if it was an actual industry-wide problem, or a QSI specific one. All evidence so far points to a QSI specific one.

I am especially surprised since I have had some people on ihug and xtra dsl (in one case not far from here, probably on the same exchange) run some tests, and they get 220kB/s, whereas I am currently getting... 7.5kB/s, and it's been that way for 3 days.
This may sound silly, but its worth a check.
A friend of mine was getting those speeds consistently. and it turns out the username in his dsl modem reset it self to something weird.
It still connected him to his DSL but because the UN didn't authenticate he was capped to 64k.
Might be worth a try :)
