I’m on BT FTTC and I’m on bt infinity 1 (up to 55Mbps). My HH5A says my max rate is actually 55 and that’s what I sync at.
I have just switched to plusnet for price reasons. It’s up to 80Mbps and I’m not entirely sure wether I can squeeze much more speed from the line, last thing to try is the equipment.
(It’s in the master socket and all wiring has been updated).
I’m on an ECI cab.
HH5A I’m sure is a good match for the ECI cab afaik.
Today I purchased a TP-Link TD-W9970 - Broadcom chipset.
It seemed to get good sync speeds from the reviews I’ve read, although it doesn’t use the best Broadcom chip like the billion 8800NL and the zxyel I hear mentioned. As I don’t need advanced features, just a modem, I wondered if anyone had a comment on what I’ve ordered regarding expected sync speeds vs HH5 / plusnet one ... and if I should consider testing anything else - to see if I can make use of the extra speed headroom I’ll get when switching to plusnet.
Thanks
