What was the fix? Can you supply details for anyone else who may be experiencing performance issues, so they might resolve theirs?
On another thought - I just wanted to add - although I'm in London and you are in Scotland - in winter my network provider is rubbish! I'm with Orange. It was so bad last year that it was like watching everything in slow motion, and crashing and Tp-ing was ridiculous. I was not on a windlight viewer, and had draw distances, and graphics down and everything. I feared it was the end for my av....however after a lot of investigating and complaining, and research, I found that Orange was a big problem for people using SL at various times, but mainly in winter or colder months. I was fine on every other programme I used, a little slow with youtube, but it was just horrendous with SL.
Orange, I must say were completely useless and unhelpful in their responses on my frequent calls, however, when it warmed up, and over these past few months, things have improved dramatically.
If things get worse for you again, do your research if others are on the same network and experiencing issues with SL.

I ditched Orange -they're are downright terrible ISP service...one of the worst customer service I've yet experienced (on a par with LL). I upgraded to 8Mb packaged...they were still giving me 1.2Mb and charging me for it blaming all kinds of things. Switched to VirginMedia Cable ISP 10Mb.(i get 9.7Mb on average)....and things are much better now at a cheaper cost even!
