Re: FTTC upto 80Mbps

Nope, don't get, and never have had anything that high... 38717 profile, but never that high, neither up or down.
Think somehow the engineer did what he's been trained to do, just forgot he wasn't supposed to do it until later in the year/next year.
Excellent stuff.

Re: FTTC upto 80Mbps

Means absolute peanuts though. He did tell me he got an email out that round the Openreach employees that BT are infact commencing installations of the upto 80MB circuits.
Was a top bloke aswell, still it's ok having all this speed but it just gets bottlenecked when it hits Plusnets DSLAM.

hits Plusnets DSLAM.

Which one?  I don't think you'll find a PN DSLAM anywhere.  You're now hooked into the BT DSLAM in the cabinet.
So sources of bottleneck thereafter:
- Fibre backhaul to the exchange.... doubt it.
- BT Backhaul from exchange to BT network - possible.
- PN Connection to BT network - possible.
- PN Network - more likely.
- PN traffic shaper - very likely.
- PN connection to the net - possible.

It's the one in the exchange nearest that set's your speed profile I'm sure of it. Thats what I meant by the Plusnet DSLAM, it will be BT equipment however I'm sure that's where the speed is set.

Re: FTTC upto 80Mbps

Reading some openreach engineer forum, looks like they forgot to put the DSLAM profile on for you.... so will probably be stuck with that now.
