Estimated line speed:
41Mb (This may vary between 31.7Mb and 41.4Mb) - Checked on 2016-02-14 10:25:43
Current line speed:
25.4 Mb
25.4 Mbps isn't anywhere near the estimated line speed being well below the minimum quoted. Is something wrong or am I just misinterpreting the figures?

Upstream Downstream (Mbps)
High Low High Low
FTTC Range A (Clean) 35 27.1 7.6 5.8 -- Available
FTTC Range B (Impacted) 27.3 13.5 6.2 1.4 -- Available
I guess my line must be "impacted". What a pity that BT don't replace suspect copper - preferably with fibre.

@Jelv maybe that was the BT estimate at the time the OP signed up but has since been adjusted on BT's end but hasn't on the plusnet side.

That would be why it's called an estimate
Quote from: tallstory My query was why the line estimates are so much above this?
