unfortunately they can not help here, you will have to ring netspace tomorrow

since you would have to transmit your account info via whirlpool which is not allowed, your best option is to call where the line is secure for account verification to take place.

ive sent an email to accounts@netspace

did you get a return email with a ticket # if so post your ticket # details here then a online rep may be able to help you

final note:

Is this the only pc on the connection &

have you tried switching off the modem and re authenticating ??

hope that helps ... good luck

I reset my modem every couple of days and I always have top speed.

I think its the Netcomm modem I have.
Later this year I will research and get a better one.

Get the NB6PLUS4W. They rock. I moved up from a Netcomm NB1300 as well.

Instant 2mbit gain in speed to. I was rapt!

Ping times also went from 70ms to 49ms.
