With regards to general speed issues (obviously I'm bearing in mind the Faraday issues at present) over the next few days I'll take a broader overview of which 80/20 trialists are still reporting speed issues so I can split those down into those just affected by the issue we've posted today about on service status and those who are effected by a profile mis-match at BT's side. Of course you'll remember that some of you were just seeing misleading speed test results by not using the beta tester at http://www.speedtester.bt.com/ so just as a reminder that if you are on 80/20, still cannot achieve speeds above 40mb please use the beta tester as the first port of call

Quote from: Gareth6 Still down a week later? Damn
That does sound very, very similar to what I'm experiencing. I did mention this trial in the support ticket. Have you tried reverting to the old profile?
I asked about that, but it won't necessarily make any difference, I just hope that when they eventually fix it this time it stays fixed, or if it doesn't that they will be a fast track way to getting it looked at as opposed to waiting a further 3 days for BT to have another look at the same fault.
I'd be suprised, but it could possibly be a different issue following my previous issue... even so it's a BT job - there's just no route from the fibre modem to the provider even though the modem sees the DSL circuit.

Quote from: marka87uk Hi,
I should have been placed onto the 80/20 trial about a week ago but my speeds/profile hasn't changed (I've rebooted the router numerous times but to no avail).
Please can you have a look into this for me? Do I need to raise a ticket?
The results of the BT Speedtest are below - not sure why the download speed is so low, normally I get around 35Mbps on speedtest.net.
Thanks
I have now raised a ticket - #53738534

It does seem that using the trial I do get my advertised speeds of 40mb down. Wonder if I can keep it after as it only gives me the same speed as before

Quote from: AlanT Following this Status Update, I've disconnected/reconnected, so let's await what happens to download speed this evening.
The BT beta speedtester appeared to be broken last night ("System busy..." repeatedly, even up to this morning at 7.30am-ish) so I couldn't check, but all's back to normal now...

Quote from: jelv [quote=http://usertools.plus.net/status/archive/1332846515.htm]Peak time speed/performance problems :: Faraday (70844) - NEW
Further investigation suggests that those experiencing problems are being routed via a particular site that we use for broadband provision (Faraday).
<snip>
If you think you are affected by this problem then you may be able to restore normal service by disconnecting and reconnecting. Whilst it's not guaranteed, this may result in your traffic being routed via an alternative site that is not subject to these speed issues.
Is Faraday associated with particular gateways?
No, it's not.

Dear Mrs ******,
Thanks for your patience. It would appear that you are currently achieving the highest speeds possible for your line, and that this is due to loss between the cabinet and your premises. If you notice any degradation in your speeds, feel free to get back in contact with us. I apologise for any inconvenience that this fault has caused you.
Kind regards, [mremoved]
It seems that after all the investigations, the highest I will get is 44/10Mbs on the 80/20 product. I will just stay on the 40/2 Mbs when the trial is finished as I was getting 38/1.9 on the 40/2 Mbs product.
Thanks to everyone who has been involved in helping me.
Katie

My speeds have gone from a flatlining 16mbps to 40+mbps this morning. I am guessing something was DONE?
Any news PNet staffers?
