Want to join TalkTalk LLU

I had checking samknows and talktalk exchange checker as BTW and TT gave me a maximum speed of just 6.5Mb speed. However, I am currently with zen internet and got max speed of 7Mb.

How fast will talktalk give me the speed on up to 24Mb ? I think roughly around 13-14Mb.

Here is my router line detail on max up to 8Mb:

ADSL Link Downstream Upstream
Connection Speed 8128 kbps 448 kbps
Line Attenuation 28.0 db 14.0 db
Noise Margin 16.0 db 27.0 db

BT Speedtester

Download speedachieved during the test was - 7013 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 600-7150 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :8128 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 7150 Kbps

Line Attenuation 28.0 db 14.0 db

Here you go

Thanks but after discussing over the phone with TalkTalk, they say my line can't go more than 6.5Mb because of the cable route from exchange to my property is far too long lenth. I told them Why did I get 7Mb with max dsl with zen and they say ADSL2+ is different to ADSL. They say I won't getting of more than 7Mb if switch over to TalkTalk, as they checked talktalk speed check using my telephone number and post code and say it only do 6.5Mb.

That is what their checker reports.. but your attenuation says something more accurate and will allow around 12Mb on the line - maybe a little more.

Matt, Is there any C&W LLU upgrade yet for Cuckoo Oak exchange ?

Nothing showing...

More like 14.5 Meg, allowing for an attenuation increase to 31 dB on ADSL2+.

Does talktalk llu come with bras ip profile system ? and will it work with my netgear dg834n rangemax wireless router ? Do I need to cancel my bt line and cancel my broadband with zen before order talktalk ?

No LLU uses IP Profiles and should work with any generic (not locked to a particular ISP) Router.

I think your new ISP should handle all aspects of the migration. You might be advised to formally cancel your previous contracts and your DD after the migration has taken place.

When i switched from IDNet to TT they told me they would handle everything, I assumed I needed a MAC but I didn't and everything went smoothly, I did send my old ISP an email telling them the date I was going to be switched over but it was only for my peace of mind.
