Plusnet IP Profile updating

Hiya all,
When is it that the Plusnet IP profile is meant to update to match the BTW IP profile? I'm aware it should be twice a day, so is that at set times or is it not as clear cut as that?
Cheers!
Iain

Re: Plusnet IP Profile updating

It may take a few days for the BTW profile to arrive at Plusnet, a length of time comparable to writing a letter on a piece of paper and sending it through the post.
A more recent twist is that if or when the Plusnet profile updates, your PPP session might not be automatically disconnected and reconnected, so your speed won't change until after you manually disconnect and reconnect, or something else causes a reconnect. Also, I don't know if it is still the case that the profile can go down much quicker and more reliably than it can go up.

Cheers ejs. I know about needing to disconnect and reconnect the PPP session to get the updated profile but I hope it's a lot faster than a few days for Plusnet to update to match!

Hi Menruna,
It looks that's sorted for you?

Certainly is Chris, many thanks.
Should there be regularity to when the Plusnet side updates?

Re: Plusnet IP Profile updating

The profile script runs on our side 5 times a day at the moment. So once we've received the report it should update the same day.
