Three weeks on, still having the same issues and no closer to finding a reason for why this happens. Whilst I'm disappointed that its been happening for this long to begin with (just cancelled SWTOR, unplayable), I'm more annoyed at the fact that I don't even know what is wrong.
I've called tech support and explained my situation as best as I could. I've done ping tests and speed tests that were asked of me and got a tech sent around to look at things. They said that nothing seems to be the matter. The tech on the phone said that nothing seems to be wrong with the hub, nothing seems to be too wrong with the ultilisation and nothing seems to be wrong in the area.
... except night after night, for a period of between two and three hours, my game latency is a total rollercoaster, my browsing speed is ridiculously hindered by the connection hanging and nothing happening. It happens even when I'm the only device connected in the household.
I'm not going to rant and rave about Virgin Media because to be honest, I think for the most part, my household has had pretty decent service from them. Until this point, I can't think of any absolute major issue that has happened. Well, there was one time where the connection had been double split by a couple of technicians rendering the internet well and truth worthless (couldn't connect, let alone use) but this is killing my gaming at night. Yeah, its only a game but creature comforts, man... creature comforts.
