BT wholesale dsl checker has been updated.

"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 80Mbps and upstream line speed of 20Mbps."

Good spot .

an estimated WBC FTTC Broadband where consumers have received downstream line speed of 51.7Mbps and upstream line speed of 13.2Mbps.

That's at 600 metres from the cabinet.

I just checked and got the same result as you, no idea how far I'm away from the cab tho. I know of 2 green cabs near me tho not sure which of the 2 has been updated to fttc or if there is/ae others I've not seen.

for the past nearly 9years have been stuck on 512kbs-2.5mb adsl/adsl2, only llu until recently has been talktalk with sky becoming available recently with the 21cn update and fttc.

would already have ordered the 40/10(40/2) but have to see through the current month on adsl24(asked for the mac on 2nd april, only found out fttc was available a few days prior). been trying to decide between sky and bt as per my thread 12 days ago.

I think that the checker allows for a certain degree of crosstalk, hence the underestimated speeds it gives.

>400m = 59.4 Mbps

Anyone been upgraded yet?

I'm about seventy yards from the cabinet and the result is 71.1 download and 20 upload.

I'm just over 100 Meters from the CAB and getting a result of:

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 69.6Mbps and upstream line speed of 20Mbps.

In reality I am already on the 80/20 FTTC product, connected at full 80/20 sync and getting a steady throughput of around 75Mbps when checked on the BT Beta Speedtester. Other testers tend to give varying results.

Im about 250 -300 metres from the cabinet and I get the following:

hmm mine says estimate of 29,bps but i get 35-36, so i doubt ill see any difference.

I get this -
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 20.9Mbps and upstream line speed of 5Mbps.
Currently getting just short of 37Mbps down and 6Mbps up so again no point in signing up until 30a profile comes along.
