ADSL2+ upgrade times

Hi all
I "think" my exchnage has finally got the 21CN upgrade...Do I need to do anything for PlusNet to move up to the higher speed ? 
Of course if they can beat BT into sorting the FTTC then that would be even better but think I might just have to wait a little longer for that Sad

Re: ADSL2+ upgrade times

Which exchange are you on?
If it's been a recent upgrade Plusnet usually spread the upgrades of their users over the following few weeks.

Re: ADSL2+ upgrade times

If you check in your closed tickets there might be a copy of an email that normally gets sent to notify you that you are going to be upgraded. As the exchange upgrade was so recent (link) that might not have happened yet.
If you are lucky one of the PN bods that watch these forums might order you an early upgrade.
One thing that is puzzling me about your exchange is how it comes to be Market 2 when there appears to be no competition to BT!

Re: ADSL2+ upgrade times

it is a new"ish" development and also feeds a commercial area, but why market 2 I dont know, not that I am complaining, but it does mean we seem to get everything way after everybody else, I would have thought such a small exchnage would be an easy tarket for FTTC or FTTP...maybe I am just dreaming.
And yes an PN bods who want to put my order in are more than welcome  Grin

Perhaps Orange had unbundled the exchange, at the last OFCOM review, before they subsequently abandoned their LLU efforts?
