Our ADSL connection is normally very good. Typically we get sync speeds of up to 900 U and 7000 D. But the last couple of weeks we've been getting very erratic speeds and disconnections every few hours - the router then reports no ADSL carrier. Sometimes the router, which normally reports DSL Modulation Type: ADSL_2plus instead reports ADSL_G.dmt.bis and the sync speed falls to 350 U and 350...

A friend of mine, who lives some distance away, wants to change her 'phone line and broadband away from BT. There are no prizes for guessing why. She has been with them for some years, renewing the service every October, but now that she is actively trying to switch away, BT are saying that she has to keep her current contract with them until it expires, or pay an early termination penalty. Are...

We have two phone lines, one is our main domestic line and is with PlusNet who I'm quite happy with for that line. The other line is currently a PlusNet business line as it used to be our business line but the company is now 'not trading' so I want to find a cheaper deal. We make no calls on that line now (well maybe one or two a year) so we're after a cheap as chips phone rental with ADSL. I...

Bhtee and VM engaged in fake fibre marketing -------------------------------------------- This at the expense of real fibre optic service providers. VM's slow upload speeds and Bhtee's slow broadband on what is supposedly fibre is all down to fake marketing claims and blatant lies of delivering services

Offcon announces giant tax hike on Krone tools ---------------------------------------------- Apparently Bhtee engineers are addicted to master baiting with their Krone tools all day, and so Offcon now wants these Bhtee perverts to pay for it. Offcon would much rather see Krone tools being banned altogether in favour of optical fibre interconnect tools, butt as there are too many outdated...

Separating digital infrastructure from service providers -------------------------------------------------------- Its a bad bad idea for Bhtee to take owership of the digital infrastructure and charger others access. The infrastructure should be a separate entity and paid for by the customer of that infrastructure directly, not the suppliers of services such as broadband and cable service...

Invalidated AGAIN last night. OK I had been using Wi-Fi on buses, in the pub, at home and possibly the Institute of Directors, but this seems to happen more than once a month (40 since I started counting in 2014). The principle cause seems to be that as well as accessing my email from my PC (web and Outlook), my phone and tablet also keep up. When oh when are BT going to sack off Yahoo! as...

Bhtee responsible for making UK worst country in developed world for FTTH http://www.ispreview.co.uk/index.php/2015/02/uk-remains-absent-2015-global-ultrafast-ftth-broadband-ranking.html Even near third world nations such as Portugal beats UK by a million mile. So the plan is? Plod on weeping like girlies requesting more money from state hand outs to roll out FTTH?

The Right Grant Schapps has proposed selling off Openreach because of poor performance. Actually BT has been quite good, although it is abusing its monopoly position to over-charge for FTTP (having started off with modest fee to start with). This fails to recognise 'common carrier' nature of the BT network. It is sufficient that it merely has to carry everyone else's traffic for the same price...

Bhteee's fscking trolls ----------------------- They have an order page for fiber to the premises. So I fill in the web page to offer them moneeeey so they can install it in home.

Hi. I have talktalk 76mb fibre large connection. I am getting an upload speed of 2.03Mb/s and a download of 17.33mb/s. These are measured plugging the ethernet cable going into my wireless router into my laptop, so no wifi degradation. Does the upload seem consistent with the download speed? FYI my usage is over 100 gb per month so need the unlimited capacity that comes with 'large'.
