Hot on the heels of the segment we lit last week, we’re pleased to announce that after a few teething problems we’ve finally managed to get a brand new 622Mbps BT central installed at one of our data centres down in London docklands.
Affectionately named ‘Plusnet 15′, we’ve already lit half of the new pipe (2 x 155Mbps segments) and have customers connecting to it as I type. If you do manage to get onto the new central then you’ll find that your traffic routes through the gateway known as thn-ag2.
This extra capacity will help us resolve the recent complaints of slow speeds during the evening, something we’ve been chronicling over on our Service Status feed.
We’re a bit late announcing the news however we lit the final segment of the inventively named ‘Plusnet 14′ on Monday. For those that don’t know, Plusnet 14 is our most recently installed 622Mbps pipe of central capacity.
That’s two whole 622Mbps pipes we’ve lit since July! 
Those that have been suffering from the recent peak time speed problems will be pleased to hear that we’re not going to stop there either! We’ve more capacity scheduled to be lit next week too! More…
You’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.

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…
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.
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.
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.

It’s that time again folks!
This morning we activated another 155Mbps segment of central capacity.
All of the data you send and receive from your broadband connection travels across these segments of central capacity so to put it in simpler terms, we’ve just increased the amount of bandwidth that’s available to you all.
Last year we published the distribution of our customers speeds in order to compare what our customers were starting to see on our 21CN network against what they previously had and also to see what speed distributions both 20CN and 21CN were giving. As we have over 800 customers on 21CN now we thought it would be useful to revisit the distribution of speeds as we have a much better sample size now. More…
