Well when the BT engineer installed my equipment he did indeed test my line and the results came up as D/L 40 meg and U/L 10 meg. So I should be getting more tham the ADSL checker says im entitle to, but i will settle for it none the less. Please get me sorted Dave! Thanks.

I suspect that the checker makes its prediction based on higher cable-fills, and so takes some crosstalk into account. The first people onto a cabinet (such as the ultra-keen triallists  Wink ) are therefore likely to get much better speeds at first, which will probably reduce as more people take up the service.
I bet the crosstalk behaviour is one of the things that BT want to discover from the trial...

will the bt tester not tell you the echanges reported sync rate for VDSL?

Good point. If I ever get onto FTTC, I can see I'll be running more of these than I do at the moment!
