What's that all about?
Can I downgrade again?
Anyone from Plusnet there to point me in the right direction or explain why it's so slow?
Any advice welcome.

@luke1973 I'm not sure with 21CN switch whether you go into the training period again which may account for some speed loss. If you can post your router stats it might help.
If it helped click the thumb
If it fixed it click 'This fixed my problem'

Being on 21C with a speed restriction of 8Mbps shouldn't be an issue. In fact it's performing better than those are seeing on our IPStream service currently, due to their being a relatively greater amount of bandwidth available.

Thanks for the reply. Just wondered if you had any idea why my new 'upgrade' is so much slower?
Also, what product would you recommend for a decent speed?
Cheers
Luke

There's a ten day training period once you've moved over to ADSL2/2+. Hopefully you'll see a gradual improvement during that period.

My connection feels sluggish - but I have no figures to back that up.
Speed tests perform as normal.

Are you seeing problems on anything in particular? We have plenty of bandwidth available, and there aren't widespread reports of issues.

My ADSL2 is slower than ADSL1 in one sense - but
upstream + downstream has remained unchanged (ADSL2 gives more upstream).
Various web sites - including BBC take a couple of seconds or so extra to load.
I'm on BBYW3, so I would expect reasonably consistent performance.
