I can now download a 15MB file in around 6 seconds. It used to take a few minutes.
Even at traffic managed times it is much, much, much better than I have ever previously experienced & all for a bit less than I used to pay!.
Plusnet estimated a conservative download speed of 15Mbps. BT's Infinity checker said Fibre wasn't even planned for my area in the next 6 months!

Spoke to a very knowledgable and nice technical chap, and by increasing my upstream, I lose some downstream speed.
I find 342kb/s more than adequate for me, out of the 448kb/s max.
Thanks anyway.

Here's mine:
My synch rate is 1164 / 16045 (up / down) and has been connected for 37 days 6 hours 31 mins 45 secs. When I first joined PlusNet I initially didn't notice the capped upstream until I tried to upload something. It was uncapped on request and much better for it.

Quote from: PlusComUK by increasing my upstream, I lose some downstream speed.
I'm more than twice your distance from my own exchange, and uncapping upstream had no effect on downstream whatsoever. Sync speed, throughput and reliability remain exactly the same as when it was capped.
