I have had fibre on two lines:

Line 1 (650 metres):
----
8C Profile, mid 2011:
Original estimates: 30.1 Down, 6.1 Up.
Actual: 36 Down, 10 Up.
----
17A Profile, from Nov 2011:
Current estimates: 30.1 Down, 11.3 Up.
Actual: 40 Down, 10 Up
Modem's "Max Attainable": 65 Down, 15 Up.
----

New estimate: 40 Down, 10.9 up (Note this upstream estimate went down!)

Line 2 (450 metres):
----
17A Profile:
Current estimates: 29.2 Down, 11.9 Up.
Actual: 40 Down, 10 Up.
JDSU "Max Attainable": 85 Down, 25 Up.
Modem's "Max Attainable": 90 Down, 25 Up.
----

New estimate: 40 Down, 18 up (and this upstream estimate went up).

Is your cabinet a fair distance from the exchange like mine is? As I mentioned a few posts back, my estimate changed from 23.5/10.5 to 34.6/5.9 (almost a halving of the upload speed).

Thankfully the modem shows an attainable 55/18.

I was previously getting a 40/15 estimate and now get the following

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 20Mbps.

My modem gives an Attainable Rate of 61944 down and 24389 up.

Are the line checker results capped at 40 down and 20 up?

My line had something like 130Meg / 54meg u/l on jdsu - this tester still estimating only 40meg d/l. Suspetc we may need to try tomorrow or wait for an official announcement before they lift 40meg estimates?

Yes is defiantly different I got same like You
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 40 Mbps and upstream line speed of 20 Mbps.

BUT BT website show difrent
BT Infinity Fibre optic broadband Fibre optic broadbandYou can get fibre optic broadband with speeds of up to 40Mb now. 40.0Mb download
10.0Mb upload

Before i was estimated 26.5 down and 8.6 up now im estimated 35.7 down and 5.9 up.

Does anyone actually know when these new speeds will be activated as they cant estimate these speeds if they are not yet achievable as they have capped the speeds at the old levels. Im still getting about 26-28 even though my estimated speed has gone up.

If i were BT, i would not enable the checker for the 80 MB product, until it was on offer to all exchanges.

40/6.5 for me now. Was 27/10 previously

I actually get about 25/5

Have you tried a resync?

Yep. It's what our line is capable of.

Always floats around 25Mbit. Sometimes it'll be a little higher, sometimes a little lower.

This is exactly how it will be. BT Wholesale have capped the checker at 40meg as this is the only product they currently offer.

When ISP trials have provided sufficient satisfactory standards for the 80meg service, then it'll be rolled out and the checker cap increased to 80meg.

A nice increase in downstream, but not so nice to see 3meg lopped off the upstream estimate. Cabinet went live just over a week ago, having it installed next week.
