It's amusing that the "best" ISP operates over the connections of the "worst" ISP.

TalkTalk's network is actually one of the best I am told. It's the TalkTalk CS that let's them down. Which is why I am with A&A good network and best support possible.

The network of TalkTalk Wholesale is very good as you say, as is the network of TalkTalk Retail (whatever influence they have over matters).

TT CS is problematic, but once India has ticked all the boxes (master socket test socket, filters, etc etc) you can get escalated to UK support for further testing. And there's always the forum of course, if real-time support is not required.

Well I believe this mixed with the support and expertise of A&A might be expensive but is very very worth it. I will see what Zen are like in the future hopefully

My regrade to TT is going down as a move to TT Business from what I can see.

I think it likely it is TalkTalk Business Wholesale, to be precise.

TalkTalk Business Broadband is different again, in the same way as BT Retail and BT Business are different from BT Wholesale.

Indeed, the TalkTalk wholesale network is very good - and indeed has always been very good in my experience. It's certainly unfortunate they're tarnished by association when there's a huge difference.

I will let you know when I get on it but yes when I look at the new order it says Business service on residential line. At the moment I am on BT 21CN ADSL2+

It is - I have always thought bad of them and wouldn't have tried them if I didn't have A&A support however I might give it a go in the future also via them directly. If you don't need to contact them on TT retail then I guess there's no difference in experience

I think with plusnet, they started the trial close to the time the new CEO took over, he since reshuffled the staff and it at that point probably got put on a back burner, its a shame the CEO changed at the time it did.

Yeah. I do have hope the Sky trial will lead to a proper roll-out this year, I don't think they would move to customer trials unless they were serious about imminent release. I'm not aware if the SR101 and SR102 are reporting a blank WAN IPv6 in the GUI yet, so maybe the Sagem users will be the first to benefit, even after the full roll-out.
