Hi,
I live a fair way from the exchange (not sure how far exactly but maybe 3-4km), and as I'm trying to squeeze as much speed as I can out of the line I purchased a Billion BiPAC 7800DXL based on the recommendations on the increasebroadbandspeed.co.uk site.
Interestingly, it reports that a speed of 9344 is attainable even though it always connects at 2424 (and I mean always!). I thought this meant there could be a cap on the line, but after contacting my ISP they tell me this is not the case... I have pasted the full stats below, so if someone could take a look and see if these numbers makes sense and if I should be getting a higher speed it would be greatly appreciated!
