To get the market 3 discount from Plusnet you have to take a new 12 month contract, and its a new product with different traffic management levels.

Once you get your figures from the ADSL hardware, www.farina1.com/adsl can give you an estimate of what services like ADSL2+ (as commonly used on LLU products) will achieve

Hi,

Thanks guys, that worked. Here is the test result from BT:

Test1 comprises of Best Effort Test: -provides background information.
Your DSL connection rate: 7456 kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP profile for your line is - 6000 kbps
Actual IP throughput achieved during the test was - 1448 kbps

And here is the line stat from my Netgear Router:

Netgear Woreless ADSL Firewall Router DG834G
System Up Time 04:49:41
Port Status TxPkts RxPkts Collisions Tx B/s Rx B/s Up Time
WAN PPPoA 1224 1306 0 10 53 04:48:25

WLAN 11M/54M 10037 1995 0 96 17 04:49:31


ADSL Link Downstream Upstream
Connection Speed 7456 kbps 448 kbps
Line Attenuation 20 db 9 db
Noise Margin 14 db 26 db

Let me know what you guys thinks

www.farina1.com/adsl says

"Your line should perform very well under ADSL, the estimated speed based on your data is higher than what is to be expected for that attenuation.
Most lines achieve around 7876Kbps

Your ADSL2+ speeds are likely to be in the range 18000Kbps to 20000Kbps. "

Which means an ADSL2+ supplier would be a lot quicker connection speed.

BT Speedtest is poor result, but I think with Plusnet this includes the ISP network management and not sure what the priority is on that, and this varies according to your package, and time of day.

Thanks,

just so I am clear: Plusnet is a ADSL supplier and O2 is an ADSL 2+ which is whay I should move to someone like O2 or Be?
