Maybe slightly slower than normal, but no issues with Sky using FF 3.5. Facebook is really slow.

Re: game and shopto website loading problem

Praise be! I thought it was only me, loads of websites arn't working Facebook, Shopto and Game included. I thought it might be a connection speed issue but none of those websites work either.
Im on Virgin Media

Re: game and shopto website loading problem

Virgin have issues with the network needing a reboot. Many of my friends with Virgin have to ring them every month or so and get them to reboot the street because everyones connections go tits up.
