  1. And that is where i come in...
  2. Not really Crash. All i've tried so far tonight is swapping ethernet ports on the router. Going to grab a long cable from work tomorrow and try a direct connection rather than through PowerLine. I've attached an image showing a typical minute or so pinging google. As you can see, there is frequent packet loss or lag.
  3. I just weed a little... Legends 2012 Trailer http://friends-of-tfc.blogspot.com/
  4. HAHAHAAHAHA "Swedish men have long been misunderstood. Case in point: they are often stereotyped as cold, emotionally distant loners and inexplicably mistaken for Swiss guys."
  5. Thanks for your help/suggestions guys! I just don't quite understand what has caused this issue, when as far as I can see, nothing has changed physically or virtually. I've not installed any new software, or hardware... I'll have another look tonight, grrrrr
  6. @Rog, i'll certainly give this a try, but I don't think it's a problem with the broadband because it's only the PC that seems to be suffering. @Col, The cable is only a couple of months old, but it's certainly worth a try. Thanks guys.
  7. Ok, I just tried something. I have a Mac and the PC next to each other, so I opened a browser on each and downloaded an 18Mb file from download.com on each machine, one after the other. The Mac gave a steady D/L rate of 450KBps throughout the download and the PC, although starting at a similar value, quickly declined to about 50Kbps. ARGHHHHH!!!
  8. Ok chaps, here's one for you. I'm pulling my hair out! My broadband is supplied by BT and I get a consistent connection speed of about 6Mbps. Recently i've noticed my PC seems to struggle on this connection, but all other devices on the network seem to be fine, (2x iPhones, iPad, Mac and MacBook - which are all wireless) I hardwired my PC to the router many months ago after constant headaches connecting over wifi. A Gigabit Netgear Powerline system did the job. Now this is the issue: I can ping (command through cmd) any website and get a nice, constant speedy return of around 50ms, no bother. But, I'm finding browsing the web painfully slow, and you can almost forget about streaming video, YouTube just fails to buffer a lot of the time. Tried using both Chrome and Firefox, both equally slow. Now tonight, for the first time in a while I connected to TS anticipating a fun night flying the North Africa campaign, but Teamspeak just went FUBAR. I'd initially connect with a ping of about 50ms, but this would rapidly increase to 500+ also with a stated +-500ms variation. WTF? The netgear utility confirms the connection to the router is running at about 385Mbps, so it's not the Poweline. I've not installed any new programs, it's virus free and to be honest it's probably only been turned on a couple of times since I flew last about a fortnight ago when all was well. I'm stumped.
  9. Colour footage of German aircraft in Russia DROOOOOOL! http://youtu.be/iE94nxIWjws
  10. work work work work work women (more work!) = My life at the moment lol

  11. Found a link to some incredible photos on the keypublishing forums. I've never seen them before: http://vivianpenberthy.yolasite.com/photographs-tom-meek.php Check them out guys.
  12. Lol, yeah don't worry Todd, no actual toads will be harmed in the process
  13. Toad in the hole with mashed potatoes, veg and onion gravy served with a pint of Adnams Broadside if they've got it.
  14. Is this the bus stop? Do I live here? Can i read your newspaper? Fig jam on crackers deep fried in lard with a sprinkling of Andrews salts.
  15. Bloody brilliant wasn't it?! Well done BBC and the bros. MacGregor. They weren't afraid to tackle the controversies and I think did justice to those fine men of bomber command. Some of the aerial footage was simply breathtaking. Almost as good as a coastguard islander ;-)
  16. Following on from the wonderful documentary Ewan and his brother Colin (exRAF pilot) MacGregor made for the BBC about Spitfire pilot training during the BofB, this time round it's all about the lovely Lancaster. BBC1 9pm Sunday 5th Feb http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01byv2g Preview here:
  17. It's difficult to imagine being in that situation, with the lives most of us are fortunate to live these days. Though, i would probably do the same too. He must have experienced a level of anger, outrage and disgust that I hope none of us ever will.
  18. Was there much difference in the late P-51D compared to the Korean war F-51Ds?I think you'll find Fenrir will probably correct us both on this one Nick ;-)
  19. Wow! I need Lego back in my life
  20. Just to reinforce my comment about the press sensationalising things, the following link should explain the situation more clearly as there photos.I don't think I'd want to climb around a Spitfire that's in the middle of restoration with an empty cockpit area. Personally I think the museum did the right thing.Click here Remember there are two sides to every story and the truth is usually somewhere in between.
