I did the Knoppix test before I asked in another forum on TB, for some legal torrents. Far as I am aware, the torrents linked to are legal otherwise I would not of posted them. The mods most likely would of removed the link as well.
You can download that Knoppix if you want, it's all the same test.

It may be old but gives you a view of what plusnet are, or were like. Things don't change to much with isp's, other than speed really.
Think it's best to use a fibre-extra connection as the normal extra may have a different system.

Their management changed. Then BT bought them. Were you aware of that?

And the reason BT bought them was rumoured to be to get hold of Plusnet's Ellacoya expertise.

If you're a provider of a finite service, you want to know how it's being used and by whom.
I'm sure the water companies would like to know if 45% of their water was being poured onto lawns by 5% of the customers.
Edit: It's also handy for predicting future expansion strategies.

They also bought Dabs, but Dabs don't sell Ellacoyas.

Just nearly everything else  .
Plusnet don't sell Ellacoyas either, so far as I know.

I've connected back home remotely (using TeamViewer) and run a few tests.
The downside is that the machine I'm connected to is connected (there) via wireless G, so is limited to 25Mbps... and TeamViewer must be using some of those. The raw connection is 80/20, so the wireless is definitely the limiting factor.
Still, here's the results I have so far...
11:30: 2.2MBps or 17Mbps.
14:00: 2.2MBps or 17Mbps.
16:00: Between 1.5 and 2.2 MBps, or 12-17Mbps.
I might try to get the wife to connect it wired later, to see what happens then.

Yes I knew BT own them.
When I called PN days ago, I asked about it. I was basically told, even though BT own PN, that PN do thier own thing and work in their own way. They are not affected by BT. It's still PN and not BT
So that mean's they can keep things in the traffic management department, they way they used to.

Thanks for the tests.
Wired test would be better as that's what I will be using but isp's tend to use wireless, as a get out clause and blame the customer, because wireless is not that reliable.
