    I've been with Talktalk for more than 10 years. Just basic broadband, mainly around 18 Mbps, I'm only 100 or so metres from the telephone exchange.

    Early this morning speed was around 3 Mbps and has remained as such all day. Talktalk say there is nothing wrong, only solution is to upgrade to fibre.

    Not happy with this. I wondering what is going on.

    Just found this brilliant search tool for Windows, really excellent, fast too. Useful as I have files going back to 1998 on my PC.

    Lenovo wireless keyboard has suddenly stopped working properly.

    Basically, the keys / typing works randomly, missing out letters when typed.

    I've updated drivers, re-booted numerous times, even system restore point back to Sunday - problem still there.

    Am I probably right in assuming the keyboard is faulty / needs replacing ?

    If you have reset to factory settings the keyboard...(control panel and search keyboard and then click advanced and click at the bottom reset to factory settings ), then most likely the keyboard is shot..
