I have just had my broadband activated. My upload is capped at 448kbps and i believe this can be uncapped? What will it go to uncapped or does it depend on the line length also?
I have a router that i can manually set the SNR. Does this cause a problem doing this whilst in the BT training period? Is it better to use my router or get plus net to set the SNR?
Regards

I can place the order to uncap the upstream, this normally goes through in 24 hours. I wouldn't advise tweaking the SNR in your training period though.

If you upload speed is below 448Kbs you are capped.

Edit: Will I be notified when it is uncapped or will it just happen?

There's a ticket on the account that should notify you when the order's done, though you won't need to do anything - the router will pick up the uncapped upload automatically

Hi jojo
I'm using my router that i had with my previous ISP on LLU, and i had it lower the SNR. I have connected this router with Plus net and only changed the username and password for ADSL. If i change the SNR now it will make a dramatic change in sync speed and I'm worried this will really confuse BT's profiling and mess my line profile up. It seems fine at the moment. I can post line stats later this evening.
I get around 7.2Mbps on download testers and i sync at around 8026kbps and my SNR around 3.5 to 4 db down
My line profile on BT speedtester was 7150kbps i think
Do this sound right?

That's about as good as an up to 8Mb line will get I'd leave it as it is to be honest.
