I am wondering how I can check whether I have an upload cap ? currently I measure my upload speed at 310kps which seems very low.
I'm looking to do some live video streaming and really need around 1-2 Mps
thanks

if you're on a 20CN exchange you're restricted to 448kbps.

What are your expected speeds. if you enter your phone number in the DSL checker you should have a better idea.

You'd need to check the ADSL stats from your router, but I'd guess it's been set as capped by Plusnet.
Even once it's uncapped, you won't get much more than 1Mbps upload speed at best on 21CN ADSL2+.

This is what DSLchecker says is possible. So it looks like the upload is being capped - Can anyone from Plusnet assist me ?

I've put through an order to uncap, this should complete tomorrow.

You're still going to struggle to be honest, you're unlikely to see much more than 800/900Kbps throughput on upload even after the uncap.
Your screenshot does show fibre is available, have you though about that?
