Re: Volunteer Thread (Exchange enabled now or up to 31/03/2009)

Quote from: fishter
Would like to volunteer, but can't yet as my exchange isn't live until 31st January 09.
I don't suppose there's a chance of being in the second round of volunteers?

A couple of the exchanges that were enabled in the last couple of months got done a few days before the published date, but a couple of others I was checking got done the day after. I'm happy to add you to the list to go in at the end of January/beginning of February if you like, our plan is over the next few months to start increasing the volumes but at a sensible rate dictated by fault volumes, order progress and systems etc. so we'll still be wanting people to take part come February. Let me know if you want me to put you on the list.

Plusnet will obtain your account username and connection details from the information provided when you registered for these forums, so no need to post it here.
All that is required for the moment is to confirm that your exchange is already enabled for 21CN or mention the forecast enablement date. You must also make sure you have a modem that supports ADSL2+ (21CN).

Hello David,
Yes - My Exchange is 21CN enabled (21CN WBC status: Enabled as of 30/04/2008 )
I had a Draytek 2820Vn router ready and waiting... (well, not waiting, currently servicing my ADSL atm!)
I've adjusted my forum profile info to use my Plusnet email address...
Regards
Jules

Re: Volunteer Thread (Exchange enabled now or up to 31/03/2009)

juleswilko, stuartA, conroc00, azoth, newb000 - all added to the trial, we'll put the orders through in the next week or so (we're staggering the ones we've got out as there's about 20 going through) and keep you updated via ticket.
Dev - I have a feeling the 1800HG isn't ADSL2+ compatible, we can send you a Thomson 585v7 if you like, we've done that with a couple of others who said they were happy to commit to a further 12 months.
BigRD, CraigBruce - I'm putting the orders through at the moment for the exchanges that are already enabled or enabled this month, once we've got all these done I'll go back through the list and pick up the ones where the exchanges are enabled in February and March.
mr9lt - I've added you but put the ticket on hold until the end of the month for when the exchange is ready.

(Moderator's Note:
Posts previously in this "Can't Volunteer" topic but mentioning 21CN Ready For Service dates up to 31/03/2009 have been moved to a new "Volunteers" topic here. I understand that Dave T will be requesting those affected by this to confirm they really do want to volunteer.

Re: Volunteer Thread (Exchange enabled now or up to 31/03/2009)

Dave,
I'd like to volunteer.
Exchange: SMHI
BT have announced a ready for service date for this exchange. The estimated go live date of 31st March 2009
I need an excuse to get a new router/modem - of course, if you are able to send me one, that would be even better Wink
Should be able to help you assess the reliability and speed on a moderately crappy line...  as my SNR target was 15 dB but is now back at 6 dB.
[I sent you my username by PM - hope you picked it up]
