Just seen if you order infinity 1, the speeds are now 52 meg down not 38.

Also available if you recontract.

Wonder if they will do the same with inifinity 2 at some point soon?  Hope so, but would have thought they would have done them both together.

Just got a free upgrade on the Virgin connection to 200 downstream.  Still got a pathetic 10 up though which limits my VPN throughput.

Besides, I probably wont be with them for much longer.   At least for the next 12 months anyhoo

Yup.  I just have to go through the motions now.

Appear to be. Some have them, some not.

I think the "up to" 300Mb FTTC service will start to be rolled out soon....

I've heard some of Brakkers is getting FTTP, but suspect that will be the new ones

There was an item on news this morning saying companies are "misleading"public as far as broadband speeds are concerned,but apparently they can advertise a speed as long as 1 in 10 customers can achieve this.I'm not clued up enough on computer stuff to say whether this is correct or not.I've absolutely no idea what I get or how to find out.Computer does what I want of it so I'm happy.

Just type 'broadband speed test' into Google and you can take your pick of dozens of free speed checks, they only take a couple of minutes there you have it.

Yes, thank you very much for that

If I lived 50 meters away from where I do, could have fttp.

By us, if you have a pole, you can have it, if underground you cant, as far as I can tell.

Not sure how much I'd pay for it mind.....

But you'd save nearly £20 on a phone line (unless you particularly needed a non-IP based landline).  Based on that, up to £50 I'd be quids in, and I'd debate further costs based on real upload speeds (my Achilles heal)
