Hello,
I'm suffering from really high pings and it's making online gaming difficult. I'm new to this service and voda so if anyone could advise what is happening that would be appreciated please.
Here's my trace route to bbc and it looks like I am connected to my local DC (Leeds) but the pings to it are really high.
Tracing route to gtm-live.pri.bbc.co.uk [212.58.236.1]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

Thanks (in advance) for taking a look.
Solved! Go to best answer.

I think I'll be cancelling tomorrow and either trying another provider on City Fibre or seeing if Virgin want to make me an offer to stay with them.
Having looked into it, as was said in this thread, a lot of people having the same experience as us - weeks and weeks of it being great and then this. Support are of no use. Even in the bad days of Virgin Media, you could always escalate things and speak to a really expert but it seems Voda aren't bothered.

Miner's still fine. On the Leeds BNG (90.246.0.1) and the first two octets are 90. 248. I aren't reboot now, and heaven forbid we have a power cut.

Mine just went off completely!

As of 20:10pm mine has also turned off completely. I can only hope and pray that this is them fixing the issue. Currently 20:24pm and it's still not back online

Just checking (and being pedantic!), you mean 10.10-10.24pm (or 2210-2224), right? Exact same for me.
Hoping this means they've taken the string out between the beans cans and replacing it with some cable.

Should be OK now.

I am back online and the connection is looking great (first tests).
