Yes, I noticed that as well. Other tests I've run don't show that so much, so I assumed it was just a quirk of that individual test.

I've had great fun reading the conspiracy theories in this thread! As Ian and a few others have pointed out, neither I nor Claranet have anything to gain from this thread, other than perhaps shared knowledge and experience a rare FTTP service (assuming someone lurking here had it installed) and feeding my interest in UK Broadband as a whole. I didn't mention Claranet in my first post, for that matter I could have been using a competitors FTTP service, the Claranet bit wasn't the point of the post, the FTTP 330 bit was. I only mentioned Infinity 4 because BT Retail are the gorilla in the room with the vast majority of the FTTP lines installed in the UK.
If you look through my previous posts you'll see I've not been here for a while, but a while ago I was a major contributor, and always conducted myself in a very transparent way. I was heavily involved in the Easynet LLU network (now Sky) and the AOL LLU network (now TT), and although I now work for someone who isn't involved in LLU or 'carrier' broadband services, I'm still very interested in it.

Only Openreach CEO boss Liv Garfield had 1Gbps downstream and 1Gbps upstream as a 1:1 contention ratio at her home.
It's all making sense now........do I suspect a bit of jealousy, (albeit totally impractical/unneeded in today's current climate), here?

However, as an ISP rep it might help if your signature indicated which ISP you are a rep for.

Though I suspect there would then be people complaiining that each post was a little plug for that ISP.

Do they all show a slow rise though? I get that on one PC on a particular line, different PC on that line is fine and if I use the one PC elsewhere it is also fine. Something odd!..

That is not how I see it when the PlusNet reps provide help in the PlusNet forum. At least we know that they are qualified to answer questions on behalf of PlusNet. In this case you do not know which ISP is being represented and therefore cannot judge the validity of a post either way.

M. So are you just reselling a BT product?
What hardware are you using?
Are there any bandwidth limits?
