Du internet connection speeds

Has anyone else been having problems with their Du internet connections over the last few days? Our 8Mb line has been giving no more than 256k for the last 4 days.

The Du connection went down at our office in the DIFC for about a day and I'm wondering if my home connection problems are part of a bigger problem.

I've tried rebooting everything in the house.

PMSL! You and your client are nuts!

Re: Du internet connection speeds

A pleasant discovery upon moving into my new apartment was the discovery that I am somehow getting free wireless. NETGEAR in the Greens. May be specific to the building or not.

It works about 75% of the time. Sometimes slow, sometimes rapid.

But I ain't complaining at not having to shell out for a DU package.
