The default wireless key for PlusNet's fibre router is on the label on the bottom of it.

cheers, I found that out, but he wants to put his own in, mind you to be honest, I think he should change it, but there you go.

I will pop over later, but going out for a few drinks first this afternoon.

I think he would be better off to get a decent router, not one that been modified.

That is why my mate went for fibre because of the faster upload speed. even if Allpay do go for a higher speed, i doubt upload will be much faster.

I think the equipment is pretty limited to the maximum bandwidth unless they replace it all with knew and they will not do that as it will cost too much.

The problem you will have with FTTc is that you are a fair distance away from the cabinet and you may not even get a speed worth bothering with.


If I pop over to my mates place later, I will be interested to see how fast and how much different 70Mb/s will make to normal browsing, to be honest I don't think it will make that much. i did not find any difference in going from 5 to 10, ok downloads was faster and the odd picture I stuck on face book was faster.

Anyway, I still got 18 months in this contract unless it mucks up so much that I can get out, but at the moment I am happy with what I have got.

i wil have to wait and see what speeds i can get once they ahve instailled it i did a check on talk tallk and it says nothing yet but it says my line would be redy for fiber broadband in march so just have to wait now and see if talk talk can offer me 20mb and its only £ 16 then i wil go i am paying 31 now with allpay and a phone line with sky thats 14 amonth

Oh well, at least you got a pretty decent broadband, which is more than some people got.
