was wondering if anyone knew if i could increase my upload speed?
many thanks
Ade

depends - what are your present upload and download speeds as reported by the router

[#3]

hi mate,
thank you for your reply, do you know how i would find that out?

[#4]

if you have a Plusnet supplied router this gives them http://192.168.1.254/cgi/b/dsl/dt/?ce=1&be=0&l0=1&l1=0

here are the details from that page

The easy answer is yes it can be increased to about 1000kbps for no charge
I would assume that the staff on here will pick this up and do it for you

[#7]

that's briiliant
i'll sit and wait to see if someone picks this up
thank you

[#8]

1 more question, is it possible to split the speeds evenly?

[#9]

nope
If you really want more speed Annex M may be available which would give 2.5Mb upstream with a slight reduction in downstream but this would cost £12 per month I believe (it is quoted as £10 for Business Broadband which I assume excludes VAT)

Hi AdeCFA,
I've placed the order to uncap the upload and this is due to complete in the next 24 working hours. You should start to see an increase from Monday (at the latest) onwards. Let us know how it works out for you.

[#11]

hi Linn,
thank you, that's brilliant.
Jim mentioned the possibility about 2.5mbs upload depending on the annex m, is this something that can be looked into? i don't mind losing download speed

Hi AdeCFA,
I've had a look at your line and on Annex M you'd be estimated an upload of 1.5Mbps.
I would suggest seeing how you get on with the uncapped upload and then making a decision about Annex M if you decide that the uncapped upload isn't working for you
