The speed figures aren't just the download speed - upload is a significant factor too.
With 35 down & 1.6 up, I see "faster than 83%"; with 35 down and 8 up, I see "faster than 95%".

@PlusComUK - the number's been updated and I've just been able to place the order for you. That should complete tomorrow, and you should finally get your uncapped upstream Smiley

Uncapped at last, thanks Matt, let's see how it goes.
Before uncapping, note the upload speed.



After uncapping, my upload speed has tripled.
And my ping has reduced.

@ Christmas:
Your upload speed is factored into the " **% faster than the uk" too, it's not just the download speed.

After being messed about by yet another ISP i have decided to stay with PN.
I am happy with the speeds i am getting now and i can get FTTC in march so it makes sense to stay (for now)

I take it thats who we spoke about before, trouble was, guess who was causing a bit of a problem for me,  our old friends who control the whole caboodle whom Plusnet and every other so and so rely on  Undecided
Unfortunetly I've no chance  of fttc from BT or Plusnet in the forseeable future, yet again ......thanks BT we all love you ..................not.
However I'm with them now for BB and and getting 23.5  and 1.94  on the 24m down  2m up package  Smiley

Yes you can if the BT wholesale site says so. What speed is it estimating ?
