Hey Everyone! It’s Friday, and one of those ultra special Fridays before a bank holiday. I’m hoping that the weather will sort itself out so I can go and climb Three Pebble Slab again, or something similar.
What are you lot up to this bank holiday? Let us know in the comments!
We’ve got some more good news, there is even more bandwidth available for you all.
That’s right, we’ve lit another 155Mb of central capacity, that’s 4 segments lit within the last month.
The data you use on your broadband connection travels across these segments of capacity, so in basic terms we’ve just increased the amount of bandwidth available for all your internet needs.
According to Engadget, researchers in Japan have demonstrated that any WPA-protected connection using the TKIP algorithm can be broken into within a minute. The details will apparently be revealed September 25th at a tech conference. If you’re running WPA or a WEP/WPA2 combination maybe it’s time to revisit your wifi setup? More…
Top 10 Broadband, one of the UK’s most popular independent broadband price comparison sites has announced the nominees for its 2nd annual Top 10 Broadband Awards.
To keep up with the ever growing demand for traffic we’ve got more bandwidth coming online.
This is the last 155Mb segment of our current 622Mb pipe is live and accepting customers.
Don’t worry – we’ve got another 622Mb pipe lined up and we’ll let you know when we’re due to start lighting capacity on this.
It’s that time again folks and you’ve got the pleasure of my company for the duration of the end of week.
We’ve got a rather special update from Andy and the Online, Comms & Training team this week, so make sure you don’t miss that.
How are we already near the end of August, where has the year gone? And can I have it back as there are many things I still want to do.
Ah well, guess that’s a no, on we go with the first update.
Well, I’ve been a bad boy this week and, therefore, I’m having to do Community Service once again. In fairness, I don’t think I’ve written a blog here for nearly 6 months so I’m well overdue.
In a week where we saw some mighty clangers on the pitch and I incremented the number of my birthdays, we’ve been working pretty hard at the Plusnet Towers. So much so that I refuse to do all the work in this End of Week posting, and instead I’m going to make you work for your insights!
To kick off, I’ve used Google’s Translator to turn the first ramblings into another language. So you’ve firstly got to guess the language (hopefully not too hard) and then re-translate it using either Google Translator or your own GCSE education. First off it’s Kev from the COT.
Yes, that’s right we’ve activated another 155Mbps segment of central capacity. This is hot on the heels of the last segment we lit under 2 weeks ago.
All the data you send and receive from your broadband connection travels across these segments of capacity so basically what we’re saying is that we’ve just increased the amount of bandwidth that’s available to you all.

Hello readers!
Welcome to our first End of Week post.
For those who didn’t see the blog I posted the other day, we’ve decided to move to a weekly format. More…
Have you ever needed to set up a router for a friend or neighbour? Maybe you’re one of those people who find the whole prospect of configuring a new piece of equipment daunting? I’m happy to say that there’s now a solution to this problem. Over recent weeks we’ve been trialling routers which are easier to set up, all you need to do is plug them into your PC, the power socket, and the phone line and the router does all the rest for you.
Sounds too good to be true? Well it isn’t! From today it becomes a reality.
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!
