I have noticed there is new current line speed policy. Has Plusnet changed this? Current line speed can found link below here: https://portal.plus.net/my.html?action=data_transfer_speed
Old one: BT IP Profile: 77.35Mb PN IP Profile: 77.3Mb (Mine) -> Spot on!
Old one: BT IP Profile: 58.94Mb PN IP Profile: 58.9Mb (My Parents) -> Spot on!
New one: BT IP Profile: 77.35Mb PN IP Profile: 77.2Mb (Mine) -> Why reduced?
New one: BT IP Profile: 58.94Mb PN IP Profile: 58.6Mb (My Parents) -> Why reduced?
Fixed! Go to the fix.

Hi @goldenfibre,
I'm not quite sure what you mean by "new current line speed policy" I'm afraid, please can you expand on this?
Your connection profile may vary slightly but it is nothing to worry about as long as the speed does not drop below the estimates for the line.

Hi Emily if BT IP say 77.35Mb then PN IP should be 77.3Mb not 77.2Mb?

Hi @goldenfibre
Two things spring to mind initially from looking at this thread;
1) Our profile has certain overheads which unfortunately will prevent them from performing at top wack, this is unavoidable I'm afraid, however it should never cause an excessively noticeable reduction (although I suppose "noticeable" is a rather personal opinion).
2) After a conversation with a couple of colleagues, I believe that our systems increase profiles in increments of 0.2Mbps - therefore your profile would show as 77.2Mbps until it hit 77.4Mbps, this explains the ever so slight discrepancy you are noticing between the BT IP and PN IP.
I hope this helps.

I'd also like to point out @goldenfibre that for the vast majority of cases, the speed profile is irrelevant (your IP Profile for example is one of the irrelevant ones)
