what the speed are like and ping right now at busy evening hours 7pm to 11pm?

Connection is in use by 2 other people who are browsing and streaming so some variation expected.

--- www.bbc.net.uk ping statistics ---

facebook aka akamai fixed now I assume?

No idea how plusnet got so bad so quickly, a very fast decline.

Great.

When I said "odd", I was thinking ADSLx - dumbo me!

I wonder if you've just hit on the problem they've been having. I haven't fully thought it through, but if the cabinet change wasn't done is that possibly what they couldn't trace? By moving people to ADSL2+ first they guarantee that the MSAN connections are made, then an FTTC order causes a cabinet visit.

Have you gone for the static IP address?

Even without it, a temporary tbb BQM on the line might be interesting.

And what does the tbb Flash speedtest show .... [rolleyes]

Temporary BQM.

Here is mine

Nice touch of congestion between 9:30-ish and up to nearly midnight.

My router seems to place a low premium on responding to pings so just a couple of video streams cause maximum latency to rise.

May change it at some point for something beefier when I renew my home network layer in the year.

I've migrated away from Plusnet FTTC twice now(TalkTalk, Pulse8), they seem to stop the service shortly after midnight as standard. My Pulse8 migration appointment was AM so my line resynced at about 10.30AM today - when I migrated to TalkTalk I think it didn't go live until 6PM.

Anyway the main thing is the straight FTTC->FTTC migration seems to be working, which is what many people seem to want to know about.

Yep, that's two in one day, so looking good.

Looks sweet so far.
