PN Staff: 21CN ready, need a profile nudge.


I'm still on same 8128 sync I have been on for over a year.
Do PN need to do something their end to bump me onto 21CN  :D?
Cheers.

Re: BT says 21CN is available but no change.

http://www.samknows.com/broadband/exchange/EAHSW suggests your exchange has only just gone on to 21CN
Normally Plusnet move people across in bulk in the weeks following the exchange upgrade. If one of the Plusnet staff sees this they may put in an early order for you.

Your line have to be physically moved from 20CN to 21CN and Openreach engineers take approximately 24 minutes to do this. Approximately 90 are done in bulk in a 12 hour night-shift.

Thanks for the response guys.
Should I put a ticket into the PN system, or just wait for a staff member to see this?
I have been waiting for months for 21CN, can't wait to get it activated.

U have to request it, as it will take 7 working days before u will get activated with 21CN. It will be 10 days training too once it was activated ADSL2+.

Re: PN Staff: BT says 21CN is available but no change.

I've Placed a order for you to regrade to ADSL2+, this will complete by the 8th October.
You will have an initial 10 day training period where you line will stabilise.
Any question's give me a shout.

Re: PN Staff: BT says 21CN is available but no change.

Hi Chris (and everyone else),
I've been eagerly checking to see how my upgrade is going, but I'm unsure of how I know it has gone through.
I assume the first indication will be the sync rate will go up (it's still on 8128)? Or is it my PN Profile that will change first?
Cheers in advance,
Tom

Re: PN Staff: BT says 21CN is available but no change.

Also, if it is indeed the sync rate that is the indication, do I need to reboot my router to allow this change to occur, or will it happen on its own?

Re: PN Staff: BT says 21CN is available but no change.

It should all happen on it's own - you will see a short period of down time because they have to physically connect your line to different equipment in the exchange.

Cheers Jelv. So the sync rate will indeed be the first sign that the change over has begun?
