That said, with this particular issue stated above. He is able to get 76mbps to his modem. He is only getting 60mb. I too am capable of getting more than 60mbps, however I took am limited to that figure. Strangley my next door neighbour gets the full 80 as advertised from a different provider.
This is why i believe there are som underhand tactics going on.

Is your Openreach modem a ECI or Huawei one?

It's a Huawei modem connected directly to the master socket - there's no extension wiring in this house being a new build.
Noise margin is 6.2dB. Can't tell you what it was with Sky as the modem doesn't report it when g.inp is on.
I was a bit surprised because I didn't expect the speed to change at all, unless with Sky the modem was holding a higher speed with more errors until the resysnc which took it to where it should be.
Thanks,
Dave.

BTW, I'm still on DSL, not trolling, but just interested to hear why they moved.

Quote from: XenoGuy as they're LLU, they have their own equipment, hence better....
that's quite a leap to make!

Isn't that what LLU is? Different (DSL/VDSL) equipment than BT? Ofc, not necessarily better than BT's but.

you still use the same openreach network from the exchange to your house regardless if it's LLU or not.

Quote Why did the OP move from Sky
Bill rocketed to over £50/month. They offered to reduce it but in the long run the 18 month contract with PlusNet worked out cheaper. And the internet is freshly piped from Yorkshire.
