Perhaps we should start a log for those people who have a working service to record the speed, which ISP and loaction (road name? if people will give out their location)?

Concraig, Plusnet - line was up since Friday, account was activated by Plusnet on Sunday morning. Speed started off at around 300kbps, gradually ramped up but appears to have topped out at ~ 2Mbps. Hoping that this improves over the next few days - could be down to my dodgy extension wiring though!

Turns out the capping at 2Meg is deliberate - the following from PlusNet support pages: >>>>>>>>>>>>> Your High-speed Broadband Service Your current broadband speed is 2000 Kbps What does this speed mean? This is the speed that the network supplier is telling us you should expect on your line. If your hardware is reporting higher speeds, you can try and automatically update this speed by disconnecting and reconnecting once a day for 3 days. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
