Unless one gets assigned a Plusnet IP address from the ranges registered with ARIN.

At least RIPE will tell you it an ARIN range.

That would be nice! But unfortunately it's a bit more vague than that:

Huh, I was sure they used to. Perhaps they should post "Time to give up, go IPv6".

PN is so late doing anything about IPv6 its scary.

Yep. I was wondering if Plusnet being subsumed into BT Consumer might help the IPv6 situation along a bit, but it seems not.

Assuming the thinkbroadband speed test follows the RIPE ownership.
Basically that was what I was getting at. That Plusnet may not have updated RIPE or may be using an older copy of it. Or tbb using a none-updated site. But that it isn't an "incorrect" (as per the Subject) attribution.

You have moved on though to more up to date info that is far more useful than my previous post.

It does seem likely PN have just thrown the whole lot into their allocation pool.

My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk. Domains, site and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Three 4G, tbb tests normally 35-45Mpbs down, 65Mbps off-peak, 9-24 up.

If you swap the letters BT for the PN above I�d agree.

Should be updated now, the block was an EE Mobile block but looks to have moved a big chunk to Plusnet

Thanks Andrew, now updated and showing Plusnet. Could you just persuade PN to increase bandwith to get my download back up to speed, please!
