Re: Fibre Extra?

In reply to a post by Oldjim:
Given those figures Plusnet should be able to move you to 80/20 but whether they will or are able to I have no idea
However I suspect that from the attenuation you may not get much more than 45Mb/s


OP is hoping for an increase in upload rather than download...

Re: Fibre Extra?


[re: BB4Tickton] [link to this post]
 
Which suggests you will get a huge increase in upstream speed if you move to a product with 10Mbps or 20Mbps upstream, but only 7-10Mbps increase in downstream on an "up to 76Mbps" one.

What to do lies in your hands. Given "However I was told that if I have it installed and I get a better than estimated speeds I could call back and ask to be put on the higher 80/20 Fibre Extra package" you could strongly request an upgrade to the 76/19.5 Mbps product which will cost you another £5pm, or a free release from the contract on the grounds of mis-selling if you prefer to migrate to another provider on 76/nn or 40/9.5.

The indispensable man or woman passes from the scene, and what happens next is more or less the same thing as was happening before.
