that setting alone woulndt cause what she seen.

plus according to her post on kitz forum she was initially getting full speed on the x6 but not on the single threaded, the settign apaprently fixed that.

but when she started getting slow speeds on everything I doubt it would be down to that settng especially when she had it on XP as well.

like I said it got misdiagnosed.

I have my pc on autotuning and dont see anything of that nature so to me this is concerning.

In reply to a post by RobertoS:

Pro is not recommended on the new unlimited packages. As you can turn it on and off at will, (I think monthly), I suggest you try without first. Then if you have issues, try with, and see whether it improves or is worse.

yeah true I guess.

Alot of my activity is on things that arent gold by default tho such as external ftp, and game download servers. I want those things to not be affected when plusnet's pipes fill up.

I probably am going to move, but I may hold of for a month or so as although I got my MAC if I move now its still £78 to pay off BT to feb 4 2013.

Well if you are willing to shell out £5 a month for the two or three times a year when something big happens and the pipes fill up and the Pro add on makes a difference it's up to you.

Speed and capacity on the network isn't a concern. However I wouldn't recommend moving to Plusnet at the moment for the reason I've posted about earlier in this topic.

Have you checked the payoff amount? I thought BT had signed up to the OfCom reduced rate for early terminations.

I am going to as they may be trying to pull a fast one.

But infinitys early terminate fees are still quite high I think at least 60% or so of the normal fees.

seems they have quoted me roughly 3 months of full price.

BT retail to be honest arent a whole lot better that side.

If I ring accounts/sales its fast answer with uk operator, but tech support/faults is india AND a long queue. When I reported a fault a few weeks back I was on hold for well over an hour.

I guess its possibly BT policy to have customers waiting and holding or they consider their staff underworked.

What will you be doing about the line rental?IIRC there are differences in the termination for just b/b and bundles.
