Quote from: Joanne I wonder why you can't get a result with the number.
Checked just now and this morning I can with good results.
Thanks Jojo

Just ran Speedtest.net and got 9.30/0.98 (Mbps d/u), immediately followed by BT Performance tester (4.31/0.94) which in turn I immediately followed with MBS (9.30/1.01)
I wouldn't want this "diagnostic tool" in my toolbox at the moment!

For some reason the BE BRAS profile checked does not work for me on my home connection, oddly though I can enter my home number from work (on BT Business broadband) and it gives the correct details so I can check my BT profile on my home line if I'm at work!
Any idea why the BE checker would say 'Real Error: BT Error or not a BT or BT Wholesale Line Rental number'? I assume that a Plus Net phone line is a BT Wholesale Line Rental number. Maybe the error is just indicative of corruption in the BT speedtester system/database.
At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.

I've also just run the Beta. It's come up with a latency of 79.11 which is absolute rubbish:

Edit: I've also tried pinging back to myself from the office (on a totally different network) and got similar figures.

Speedtest.net : 9.30/0.99
BT : 8.15/1.04
MBS : 9.30/1.01
(I regard that as a "normal" result from the BT tester, but therein lies the problem - yesterday's 4.31 Mbps download speed looked equally "normal" but was only half the correct figure.)

BT Speedtester 2980/379 BUT download speed = 0Mbps ! (It did stick at 96%) Profile 2500 Mbps.
MBS 3249/450
So BT relatively still weird I guess.
