10mb upload trial.
Quote from: Bob If we're gloating ...
Thats just cheating
My line wont even get close to 80 when its enabled, the modem thinks around 50-60 tops.
Damn you aluminium!

hello mate.
can i ask what was your ping before you started the trial?
im thinking of ugrading to fibre soon but want to know if there is a change in ping and jitter.....very active online gamer
Before I had fibre at all, I generally had pings of 35-40ms on ADSL2+, and jitter of 2-3ms.
Being in Northern Ireland, my pings tend to be ever so slightly higher than those on the mainland. But even saying that, I've never seen it rise above 28ms, it usually hovers around 18-22ms.
They don't seem to have changed at all with the increased upload, nor did I expect them to.
Jitter (as you can see in my pingtest in sig) is practically non-existent, never seen it above 1ms.

My latency figures have varied quite a lot, and it seems to depend on a few factors:
- Basic latency for fibre seems to be around 10ms. I had this sometimes on my first line, which was in Surrey.
- Sometimes the latency on my first line would increase by 2-3ms. This happened at each PPP connection from the router, and then stayed stable. I got different results even when I came in on the same gateway at Plusnet... and in the end, I decided this was probably caused by there being multiple backhaul routes from my exchange onto the national network - sometimes I would get the shorter route, and sometimes the longer one. I read of someone seeing similar thing based on the south coast (Southampton or Portsmouth), where the dual connections either went up to London or up to Birmingham.
- My current line, based in Yorkshire, gets a consistent 13ms latency, and doesn't vary when a new PPP connection gets made.
- The first line encountered errors, and had interleaving turned on. I know the severity of interleaving can vary, and this can affect the amount of latency added, but my latency times became 19ms at a minimum (then adding the 2-3ms based on the PPP connection).
These figures are usually pretty consistent. The times can be delayed by maybe 2ms in the 8-10 evening slot - that is definitely the busy period.
I don't have any ping jitter times, but my samKnows box tells me that RTP jitter times average 0.4-0.5ms most of the time, about 1ms @16:00, 0.75ms @18:00, 3ms @20:00 and 0.8ms @22:00.
HTH.

I'm another who is desperately after this 10 Mbps upload too and don't mind paying a bit extra for it. My fault for not reading the website information properly, but when I joined Plusnet I thought the upload speeds would be the same as BT Infinity and was so disappointed to find they are not. It must already be available at the local exchange to me as my neighbour has it through Infinity. I work from home and am about to have a lot of large files to move around, so this 10 Mbps upload would be so useful. Any chance of it happening very very soon? Thank you!
Hi Ronski,
No further news, but as Bob said, you're probably better off applying for the 80/20 trial once you're enabled.
