It's not a ratio as has already been explained.

Um, I know. Read my post again.

The question is, what was Roberto's point at all, if not to claim the *misunderstood* "ratios" were different?

I think you should

In reply to a post by vimto_girl:

a 40:10 ratio and a 38:9.5 ratio.

Because you read someone referring to a ratio, you ignore all else they said, and decide they *therefore themselves believe* it is a ratio?

If you're still confused, maybe ask an adult, they may be able to explain it to you

I'm surprised you haven't realised this is a forum, I'm not really just telling you but the OP as well, as your post may confuse them even more than they currently are.

It isn't a ratio.

As many beforehand had said and the OP seems unable to comprehend.

Nor, whatever the underlying Openreach product, was he ever offered or sold a 40/10 connection as he claims. That was my point. Where, as you claimed, is the upstream 10, or even 9.5, mentioned on the BT Retail website please?

Take Plusnet, who offer a 38/19 product. Do you consider people should get an upstream of 50% of the downstream? It happens to be the Openreach 80/20 with Plusnet themselves capping the downstream, but few punters would know that.

You just seem to be taking another of your occasional unwarranted pops at me. Please desist unless you have anything useful to contribute.

LOL
I hadn't really picked up on that part of her post. I don't remember saying it's a 38:9.5 ratio. Nobody else either. Entirely something she dreamt up .

It is there!

Go to the packages page at: http://www.productsandservices.bt.com/products/broad...

Choose one of the Fibre 38 or 76 Mb packages and click on Full Details at the bottom left and an additional block appears with a yellow background.

Find the text which says Superfast speeds Up to 9 x faster than the UK�s average standard broadband speed and hover over the word SPEED and a blue bubble will appear which quotes either 9.5 or 19 Mb upload speed.

Thanks, though I wish you'd let the flea find it .

jcym did suggest it was somewhere around - with digging, but that is rather abstruse.

I knew exactly where it was ... was going through an order with someone earlier although they finally went down the Business route and on the business side it is on the front page!
