82464 2002-09-28 06:05:00 My report back. After playing around I discovered my connection was greatly improved when I bypassed my ad blocker completely(I unticked use proxy server). I was using AdSubtract Pro and Proxomitron before that, both using a proxy server. My workmate also using Paradise and Proxomitron was experiencing the same problems and also noticed the immediate improvement. I am no longer using a proxy server but I am using Popup Ad Filter. I can live some ads if my connection speed is ok, though I was happy with both ad blockers prior to this problem . noddy (1989)
82465 2002-09-28 07:35:00 Hello from the Wairarapa. From Masterton, Paradise has been erratic: sometimes I have to disconnect and reconnect, once or more, in order to get decent transfer rates. Even during the day or early morning. I have been with Paradise for almost 3 years and the problems started a few months ago. What really annoys me is when I download email, it will just hang and do nothing at all, especially at the start. Then other times all will be OK. If things keep getting worse, I will be hunting for a new ISP. Steve_L (763)
