High Speed Broadband link disappeared from Connection Settings
Oh Plusnet... TuT TuT!
I'm assuming this is so it can't be used against them when people ar ehaving speed issues... like when Plusnet reduce the speed and it takes a few days to update after an FTTC fault for instance....
Though to be honest it was only as accurate as BTw ADSL checker... and in fibre terms it quoted the lowest speed achievable..
When I joined Plusnet with my ADSL line they said no lower than 2.5mbps and then shortly after joining they changed it to 1.5mb instead of the 3.5mb that BTw quoted! (note line currently synced at 4mb)
It's not a feature that will be missed but was handy troubleshooting step if one was missing bandwidth on a connection,
On a side note, I wonder if PLusnet is going to be removing its network level QOS system soon...

Quote from: Oldjim You have really missed the point
The problem is losing the Current Line Speed which is a valuable diagnosis tool for speed problems
I did mention that Jim

One of the reasons that made me move to PN was the transparency (support and network stats, talk openly about problems, etc).
Now all this information is being hidden from us and the quality of service is slowly getting worse. I guess it's time to start looking again for another ISP.

What's the point in the removal of this?
The removal really isn't justified, since when does the casual user click on that button more than once if it's of no use to them? there are a lot of other changes that could be made to the account page for the average user instead of removing the more "advanced" options...
EDIT: Changes, as in, reformatting the whole user page and making it less of a throw back to 2002 LOL.
I don't know why, those old looking icons get me every time
