I switched from BT Infinity 2 (76MB) to Plusnet (38MB) yesterday. My line has always been capable of reaching or exceeding the 76MB, and was estimated to reach up to 40MB on the new plusnet service.
However on activation speedtest.net shows my line hitting just under 21MB
Some test results:
and
Is a profile switch needed from Plusnet's end? Could someone please look into this.
Many thanks

Plusnet's own page says the line should be 40mb (varying between 66.1Mb and 80Mb). I know the line is capable of much more as I was hitting 76MB+ on my old service consistently for over 2 years, so an arbitrarily capped 38Mb service should not be an issue.

I manage to get actual speeds of over 37Mb/s on Plusnet '40Mb/s' (or '38Mb/'s depending on how you define the service).

Thanks a lot for this. I can see the current line speed is now 37MB in my member centre. I'll restart my router etc once I am home from work.
Thanks again.

Quote from: jafreer I also get about 37 or 38 Mbps on that service.
Same here.

All fixed now. Restarted the router this morning and speedtest.net clocking at 37.5MB.
Thanks Matthew, and everyone else for your replies.

As of today over the wifi:
So much better than before. On the ethernet speedtest.net reads 37.5mb so I'm happy with that as its what I expected from the service.

Quote from: spoon The upload speed test result is weird for someone on 40/2!
I saw exactly the same speeds when I first got FTTC (80meg). From memory, somehow my line was provisioned as a DSL migration and capped on an ADSL2+ 20 meg profile, which seemed to allow up to around a meg and a half upstream. They reapplied the correct fibre profile and all was well after a modem reboot. Seems exactly the same thing happened here.
