Anyone have better than 1 Mb dounload speed on P.N. Value

I seem to be stuck at 1 Mb even though I just left Pipex and a solid 3 Mb speed......
Thinking going Premium .Will an upgrade to Premium mean a hike in speed for me?

It is very possible that you have been put on a fixed rate product and if you look at the speeds reported by the router you will see something like
Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]:   288 / 1,152
Of course I might be completely wrong  Shocked

and a lot depends on what you are trying to download, I have just downloaded some MPeg 2 videos at 620 KB/sec and I am on Value
see http://www.kitz.co.uk/isp/plusnet_shaping.htm for what maximum speed you can get
