Anyone else on BT Broadband noticing their connection speed dropping dramatically from late afternoon to mid-evening recently?

Could be, but I also think 'oldies' watching TV via the internet play a big part - BBC i-player or BT-Vision. I can't see the situation improving on Seil for quite a while. Pity they didn't sling some fibre optic in the trench when they were putting in the water main.
