Well it eventually worked, on a second attempt - no change there then
I can see the boards and the CSC getting more queries from those that miss the tick box and also want their Service ID
As for the acceptable range, well looks like its just another excuse for dodging any speed faults

Still hangs under Firefox on Linux, to the point of me having to terminate FF and restart it.

With this new tester does the speed test go anywhere near the Plusnet speed restriction.
I ask because my profile has just recovered from 3000 to 3500 (Plusnet haven't caught up yet) but the BT speedtest result is what I would expect from a 3000 profile.

Does anyone fancy generating a library article on "How to do a BT Speedtest" on various Operating Systems (if applicable? :))

I could only do it for Windows systems - and it is self explanatory for them once you spot the little tick box - and a sticky would probably cover that..
Actually on second thoughts should it be part of the Plusnet Help System given that they (well BT) insist on 3 tests before a fault will be accepted.
Either way I can do one for windows XP, Vista and Windows 7 and then someone else could add the Mac and *nix bits as that is where the problems are more likely to appear since the BT programmers probably didn't check on the various options.
Note to self - check if it needs Java still

Can't start yet as I need to wait 3 hours before I can do another test and take the screenshots.
Also I want to check what needs to be put on the second screen as the only bit which is mandatory is the usename and not the plusdsl.net
I want to try it with java and javascript disabled first.
At least it doesn't use flash
