I've been having the same problem. Full speed on everything except for Usenet. I'm with SuperNews. Been very slow during the day or 2am when I get home from work.

I phoned up on Tuesday to complain and they said I mended an engineer out. Last night, Usenet was working at full speed. Before the engineer came this morning, it was working at full speed. An hour after he left and guess what... It's back to being slow!
Just spoke to someone at VM again and he said there's nothing wrong with the line and as I'm on the gamer package, there's no traffic management.
Not quite sure what to make of this but thought I'd share.
