They should migrate to an Opal retailer or Sky. Maybe even Zen if they are available on their exchange.

But is that advertised upto 76mbps max throughput or sync speed ? If throughput how could their claim of 10% of their customer base be proved or disproved, without a reliable impartial independent source ?


Throughput, and Samknows boxes.
So they couldn't distinguish if a connection was FTTC or FTTH then, as PN's FTTH customers get better speed test results, In with case plusnet advertising 76mbps is misleading because those with FTTC 80/20 can't achieve such throughput levels 76mbps is optimistic without an additional IP profile and traffic shaping

Unfortunately the BTW perfomance tester isn't reliable it gives me a result of near my IP profile So over 77mbps all other testers report 74-75mbps or just over 75mbps

In theory samknows is meant to know all about your cinnection type so they can use the data to feed the model that calculates speeds for the uk averages

Due to a delay in getting a new profile from BT I ran speed checks with a Plusnet profile of 80Mb/s and 46.8Mb/s and the speed difference was 1Mb/s

First 1Gig FoD connection should go live in the next few weeks.

Unfortunately, the chance of someone on the FoD 1Gig trials being a TBB member is going to be pretty slim.

Which ISP is offering FoD 1Gig?

We've seen Hyperoptic customers post around 990 Mbps speed tests too, its that missing 9Mbps that will cause the firestorm smile smile

I would like to be able to have 73 Mbps - I'm 450m from the cabinet. So I think these "full sync" people moaning about the profile need to realise how lucky they are !!
