Re: Switching to full fibre


[re: burble] [link to this post]
 
I signed up for 76Mb/s full fibre and I'm getting very close to that. No complaints. The up speed seems less well specified but I'm happy with just shy of 20Mb/s.

80/20 VDSL was often sold as 76Mb/s as that's about what you'd get under best possible conditions.

That's fine then, my bad never noticed anyone offering 76 downloads.

TBB speedtest gives 74.8Mb/s down and 18.4 up. Almost exactly what my old VDSL was giving. I don't think there's any equivalent of sync speed which used to be 80/20 rock solid with VDSL.


Seems a bit slow for a 80/20, just done a quick couple of speed test on our 150/30 and it comes back as 149/31 and 150/31, the only time I've noticed any drops are when testing VPN's.


Your 150 service is actually capped at 160 down by Openreach so probably explains why you're getting the full 150 even after overheads.
