@CostaCoffee I provide WiFi at businesses with line of sight to this building so good enough connectivity is certainly available... Would be interested to know what is wrong.

[Alan Goodman @YesCompSols]

Whats with the terrible WiFi in the new @CostaCoffee Drive Thru in Market Harborough UK? In practical terms I needed to open @discord which needed a ~100MB update that did not download in 30+ mins. Zero attempts to control congestion, 4000ms+ latency. Basically bermuda triangle..

@linusgsebastian @AmazingZoltan At least in the UK basic things needed for day to day life are VAT exempt. So you could earn up to the first tax threshold and spend a lot of it without paying any tax. Not accounting for tax paid by the producers of those basic prooducts though...

Anyone else experiencing a strange @btbusinesscare fault in the past 24 hours? I have at least half a dozen sites where connection appears to be up but not all traffic is flowing. Bouncing PPP session is fixing it, temporarily. Business as usual process wants to send engineers

@modernheroestv I love how the MOT history was warning about rust 10 years ago. Is there anything left of that front sub frame?

@Masai_Williams @EE So this post is nothing without an update... What actually happens when you put your details into the scam website?

@cortina @EE 7547 is tr069 - they use it to remotely manage the routers and its been open on every BT hub for a really really long time without any major issue. Connections to the service are authenticated via cryptographic means. Only way to make it go away is use a third party router

@wizzouk 70% of IMAP connections are via IPv6 now; though my rate may be skewed because most email customers also take networks where ive done v6 by default since 2018 ish. I see significant penetration of v6 in mobile networks. Cant easily calculate smtp, though google and MS both doit
