Re: Openreach line checker 80-20

In reply to a post by lee111s:
The Openreach data has now been updated to show the 17a rates (my line now shows
20 up and 77.1 down) however it seems BT Wholesale have, for the moment, left the downstream cap on at 40Meg.

80/20 is not a product Wholesale actually offer at the moment outside of the ISP trials. It'll probably change when they're ready to release the 80/20 to the masses.

Who's your ISP? If I asked my ISP for the BTWholesale estimates, do you reckon they would cascade this to me?

Why isn't the checker showing speeds above 40mbps for those lines that are capable of achieving above 40-80mbps speeds?


See my previous post.

Cheers.

I work for an ISP so have access to Openreach data for our customers lines. The BT Wholesale data is what you'll be given by your ISP until BT Wholesale and ISP's roll out the 80/20 variant.

It makes no odds really knowing what you'll get. You'll get it anyway at some point. No idea on when it'll be rolled out...I don't think trials have been going on for very long so it could be much later in the year.

So I was wrong early in the thread, as shown by other posts since the change, and mine earlier in this thread:-
Our test also indicates that your line currently supports a fibre technology with an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 28.9Mbps and upstream line speed of 11.5Mbps.
compared with now
Our test also indicates that your line currently supports a fibre technology with an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 40Mbps and upstream line speed of 13.2Mbps.
What I don't understand is why there was the interim jump in the upstream from its original 6.4Mbps crazy ?

if you go to link below and type in you phone number

http://www.dslchecker.bt.com/pls/adsl/ADSLChecker.Te...

That's the BT Wholesale one - which is capping at 40Mbps. I wondered how to get to Openreach's specifically.

Same with mine

Before install
Our test also indicates that your line currently supports a fibre technology with an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 30.3Mbps and upstream line speed of 7.1Mbps.


Around time when 17a activated I think?
Our test also indicates that your line currently supports a fibre technology with an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 30.3Mbps and upstream line speed of 11.9Mbps.


And now
Our test also indicates that your line currently supports a fibre technology with an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 40Mbps and upstream line speed of 18Mbps.

As others have said, it looks as if BT have updated the upload speeds but let the download ones at a max of 40MB

The line which previously estimated

downstream line speed of 28.2Mbps and upstream line speed of 11.7Mbps.


now says

downstream line speed of 40Mbps and upstream line speed of 15.7Mbps.


and the one which said
downstream line speed of 40Mbps and upstream line speed of 15Mbps.


now states:
downstream line speed of 40Mbps and upstream line speed of 20Mbps

How do I check if my cabinet will be enabled when my exchange goes live in march?

The BT checker says nothing about fibre but the talktalk fibre checks says I will be able to get 23mb download and 2mb upload?

Which one is correct and how can I get my postal code checked???

Thanks.
