Well after speaking to Sky CS and them insisting on sending me a new router back on the 29/09/09 and it still not arriving I decided to phone them up this morning. I was told the new router was never dispatched not really a problem as I knew the router wasnt at fault as I use my own one and not theirs. But I was put through to one of their agents who was actually willing to listen to me rather than just fob me off with "oh it must be something you have done". I suggested my line may have been switched to ADSL2 & DLM, after a few seconds of checking he was able to confirm this and then switch my line back to G.DMT and I think he also said he would hard set the line.

I'm very happy to have a stable connection and a 600kb/sec download speed!

I've seen a few other posts on the unoffical Sky Broadband forum so it could be tha Sky has (another) campaign on at the moment to switch people over to ADSL2 or inflict DLM onto them.

Avarst!

I'll have to come up with something clever to put here.

In the mean time enjoy a B5 quote.

Our great mistake, our failing and now your failing. The error is compounded.

What mistake?

The first one. The one from which all mistakes precede. The error of pride.

We had traveled to a thousand worlds. We brought order, discipline. We appeared to them as beings of light. They saw us as emissaries of the universe.

They saw us as gods. And we, in our pride, begin to believe them. We believed that we were superior to the universe that gave us birth. We believed that we could transcend this dimension, that we believed that we belonged to a another higher plain.

And in the end, in terms you can understand, we resolved to storm the gates of heaven itself. We applied all our wisdom. All our knowledge, to opening a door to another dimension. A place, we believed was the well of souls, the foundation for all life. We would touch the face of God and in so doing become gods ourselves.

We forgot that a door may swing in two direction. We were so concerned with getting out, that we never stopped to consider what we might be letting in, until it was too late...
