Come 31 Dec you probably could have done. Depending how quickly Plusnet incorporate it into their ordering system.

Ah - maybe a few months into 2014 wink

Feck am I waiting that long

3 years is enough

My speed estimate is 80/20 and I am around 150-170m from cab

Be interesting to see how my 7800n handles the speed via ewan

You may have a long wait for FTTC then, as you don't get to choose who installs it.

That's fine, as long I can wait for a proper BT Engineer.

yet you not happy waiting now.

Plusnet may well want to qualify a CPE before they start dishing out PCP-only installs.

Blimey. So sorry to hear it. What did BT Speedtest say of your ip profile rate and also check your plusnet current line speed? That's awful speed (it sound like it not FTTC at all) What are your BT estimate speed for FTTC?

Can see they put u on 80/20. Because your upload speed & ping was spot on
