| 456969 | 2006-05-22 23:43:00 | i was reading the herald and it says ISP's will be offering 7Mbps download speeds very soon and ADSL2+ by the end of the year. When will we be getting 7Mbps? | lance4k (4644) | ||
| 456970 | 2006-05-22 23:49:00 | Oh sorry a pig just flew past my window.......... when people are meant to be on either 2 mb or 3.5 mb services and they are not getting anything anywhere near that. I really wouldn't hold your breath for anytime soon, possibly mid next year if you are one of the lucky ones, or a telecon shareholder. Hopefully I will be back in the scotland soon where i can get back to my 10 mbit UNCAPPED service. Mode3 |

As you seem to be one of the very very few that is getting what they are paying for. Mode3 |

| 456978 | 2006-05-23 03:56:00 | I am very close to my exchange, yet only get a 2mb connection, not the 3.5mb that i pay for......... Measured by throughput or by modem line speed? If you are really on a 3.5M plan your modem should be synching at around 4.2M to allow for overheads, then you have the problem of congestion on the link beyond the DSLAM. If your line speed hasn't or can't be lifted, you should pay for a cheaper 2M connection. |
