What? More bandwidth!?

September 30th, 2009 at 15:08 by Bob Pullen

ERX-1440You’re probably getting used to these announcements by now but we’re pleased to announce that this morning we lit yet *another* 155Mbps segment of central capacity.

That’s hot on the heels of the one we lit three weeks ago, and the four we added throughout July and August.

This is the third segment of the current 622Mbps BT Central (there are four segments in total) and will be shared 2:1 between the Plusnet and Madasafish networks.

End of Week: September 25th

September 25th, 2009 at 17:34 by Andrew B

Hello readers!

It’s the end of another week here in overcast Sheffield, I’ll get straight to the nitty gritty and pass you over to Lenny in South Africa…

Hi

End of the Week….. mmmmm…..what’s that ? Just kidding, if anything it’s been wild. You must excuse me; I am still recovering from having had to be at the office on a Public Holiday. Yip, SA celebrated “Heritage Day” yesterday. Okay Okay, I should stop saying that…… a few years back some young aspiring dude, nah not me, decided to call it “National Braai Day”, unofficially off course. So dis pap en vleis alles rond en almal is baie gelukig. (ed: does anyone care to tell me what that means? :) )

We end the week with a glorious sunny afternoon.  Of course, I’d love to say it’s been like that for the whole week, but that would be an outright lie!

Andy was asking for volunteers to edit the end of week earlier in thwe week and I foolishly volunteered – so here I am.  Let’s get this party started.

More bandwidth added by Plusnet.

September 14th, 2009 at 14:47 by Chris Parr

A little bit slow off the mark but we actually added another 155Mb of central capacity last week. That’s in addition to the 4 we added over July and August.

The data you send and receive down your broadband connection travels across these segments of capacity, so in basic terms we’ve just increased the amount of bandwidth available to our customers. More…

London Calling - win an iPod!

September 9th, 2009 at 13:30 by Andrew Clayton

padd_6shtHere at Plusnet Towers we’ve been incredibly busy lately, getting ready to kick off a massive advertising campaign in London. For those of you who live in London, you might have seen the first part of our campaign already – we’ve been sponsoring the ITV London Weekday weather since the end of July. If you haven’t, you can watch the clips here

As of Monday we’ve had posters across London Underground, on London buses and in several London newspapers.

As I’m sure you’re aware, Plusnet has grown in part due to customers recommending our service to their friends. We wanted to get this across in our campaign, which is why we’ve gone for ‘8 out of 10 Plusnet customers would recommend us’ across all formats. More…

It’s been a while since I’ve done this (about a month I think), such are the joys of weekly postings.

PJ was actually supposed to be editing today but he’s otherwise engaged today so here I am!  I don’t have an intro ready so I’ll have to go straight into things. More…
