We’re now making plans for the next generation of broadband services and the purpose of this blog is go into some of the details of how we will deliver them to our customers. As we mentioned in our plans for 2008/9 this year we will begin testing ADSL2+ to our customers. This is a big project and will really benefit PlusNet’s customers.

We’ve seen PlusNet featured heavily in the news this week following the launch of our half price offer.
Last week I reported that Miss Moneypenny had featured PlusNet in a Telegraph Online article about the best broadband packages. It was nice to see that the same article was featured in print in The Sunday Telegraph last weekend.

D’oh - must not get too engrossed in work to forget to find an editor for the End of Day so I’m doing it again. Oh well, on with the show.
Yesterday I came across an article on WebUser about a broadband.co.uk report concerning peak time traffic speeds in the UK.

Here at Plusnet we're always trying to use clever open source things to make our lives easier. Sometimes we write our own and make other people's lives easier too!
We sell broadband, phone, VoIP and more to homes and businesses in the UK. Winner of 9 out of 11 Categories in the 2008 USwitch survey. Winner of "Best Consumer ISP" at 2008 ISPA awards. Voted number 1 in the Broadband Choices 2008 survey.
