The line got fixed but much to my dismay my Internet connection was still crap. After much frustration and reading around I found that a 2 meg IP Profile had been applied to my connection, which essentially meant my connection had been capped. I then proceeded to find out why and learnt that it was applied due to the fault meaning the line wouldn’t get overloaded, it also wouldn’t be taken off until 72 hours after the fault had been repaired.

72 hours have now come and gone, behold my new speed test result!

It’s still a bit iffy, but is much better than it was. I’m also currently downloading Unreal Tournament 3 from Steam and I’m hitting speeds of 740kb/s.

Awesomes!
