intermittent connectivity at peak times.

for some reason over the last couple of days lve experienced some weird issues at peak times...

yesterday as soon as it hit 4pm my connection throttled itself to exactly 40k after a disconnect and resync..

however today its been resyncing every time l get to 90% on random small downloads lve been doing... its become stupid to even try, and it makes no sense.. l did ask Virgin tech support but they blew me off saying it could be that lm on the FUP this week but it puzzles me due to the fact my resyncing issue has nothing to do with their network, the worst part is the fact its hitting my IP profile now as well.
 
Once this sort of thing hits your IP profile then, given how you're already on slower speeds (if I recall correctly), it can exasperate the problem as you're no doubt seeing. Have you tried to see if Virgin supports a different PPP connection type, since if you're using PPPoA then PPPoE can sometimes be more stable but few support both.
