Picture and sound freezing every few seconds, totally unwatchable. Speed test showing: Download speed 2.42 Mbps and Upload speed 3.81 Mbps. Not bad considering I pay for the MM Premier package.
This has been the case all week, freezing and buffering and at first I put it down to all the sport on tv with everybody logging on to watch. But we are getting this problem even first thing in the morning when there's no sport showing on the TV.
Haven't had the usual text from MM informing that link/pipeline has been damaged, so it would seem all is ok there.

I have sent a ticket to MM explaining my problems and also emailed them. Awaiting reply.

Now awaiting the posts from the usual suspects " friends of MM" informing one and all that is working ok at their end.

Amendment to my above post:
I submitted this post at 2.07pm. And received a text from MM 2.24pm saying the usual, that they were experiencing network issues.

I have been have the problem of freezing/Buffeting since 6am this morning. Things have improved, but the picture is still freezing/ buffeting.

Hi I dont know where you are but I am just outside Tatlisu. Been watching the box since 5pm with no problems so far. Sorry you are experiencing problems

Lots of internet problems generally the last few days.

Would that be the one that had their own secret method of bypassing TTNET issues then?

Oh dear, shouldn't really mock the afflicted...

...it is fun though

Our friend may have a local issue affecting his internet connection, then.

Every day, issues develop, and you can't always assume that they are due to a 'general problem'.

I found that out a couple of months ago, when mmx reported a TTNET issue, and so I didn't bother to report my particular problem. It was only after the issue was said to be resolved, and I was still having trouble, that I rang,

When the technician came, he stood on my roof, and pointed out to me that someone had gone and built a HOUSE (!) between my dish and the Merit base station. I never saw that one coming!
