Unlimited Broadband
Aaaarrrggghh!
You still haven't confirmed if you are talking about bits per second or bytes per second!

No I didn't, but I suspected it.
The expected speeds quoted by Plusnet are Kbps which is bits per second; Bytes per second is KBps and you kept posting kbps.
So...
Divide all those speeds by eight to compare with the bytes per second speeds you are quoting. It's performing pretty much as specified I suspect.

# Download sites & servers - Downloading files from certain websites = Rapidshare Clearly states that Radpishare users should still be able to receive 1mbps until 4pm, i don't get anywhere near this

That was what made me uncertain. Far from having a reason to complain, it looked like his line is doing stunningly well.
Is that 180gb or 180GB in a month? 
I suggest you need to remember that Plusnet is a business, not a charity. Have you any idea how much it costs Plusnet to enable you to use 180GB in a month?

Have you read the post about unlimited linked in my signature?
Quote from: godsell4 If you are lucky it may last, the point thought is the service you signed up for was NOT unlimited downloads as you stated.
Not bothered if it doesn't even at 5GB a day its well worth the deal. In one way it is but you get slowed down through the day, peak times are totally understandable but less than half the speeds at noon is a bit much i think. Unfortunately not all of us can stay up till god knows what time at night just for speedy downloads, some of us have to get up early. It shouldn't be called an unlimited package then...misleading as i said before. I knew the speeds were capped through the day just didn't expect it to be that bad.
Yes jelv, i have read some of the post in your signature. I agree in a way that it is a good product my point is that to come from Tiscali where you get constant speeds to then be capped so highly, taking into account the drop from 700+KB/s to anything from 70-200KB/s is quite a big drop. I know they have a FUP but i never broke that once in a year and to be honest, wish i'd never tied myself into an 18month contract here now. I'm sceptical about 18month contracts with new suppliers anyway but at the time reviews were really good, i'm noticing they arent quite so good anymore and its a shame i missed out by a few measly days for a 12 monther instead. Still, suppose i'll just have to live with it now won't i but one thing is for sure, once i can leave, i will. Sorry +Net. And its not just the speeds, like i mentioned in an earlier post, i suffer with net lag at all times of day and night and surfing seems generally quite slow sometimes and my net drops at least once a day but i suppose my router/filter'll be to blame or something despite the fact that ive tried new filters and routers
