 tom what is Ethernet? I am still fighting the good fight with Bt.
However 
no one believes I can use anything like my bandwidth so how can I
measure it 
myself. Can you give any instructions as simply as possible. You mention
Sky 
I do not think we have that.    One half of the town has Cable TV but
not my 
half so what are my alternatives if any?  did you hear Working lunch on
Bt 
charging for 1471 if you have a cheap package but only use their line?
seems 
if you make 6 calls using your BT line a quarter they  cannot take it
away. 
BBC2 Working lunch today. Dorothy.

plugging on to see what the speed problem might be on my line.

Changed from a USb to an Ethernet connection, and seems to be about a
third 
up. Downstream of 2.5 as against 1.8.

The more interesting thing for people is the question of the fault 
threshhold. Given what someone was saying about sky and its promises.

The minimum for my line is around 1.7. Anything below that is considered
a 
fault. That's pretty interesting when it is only about a fifth of the
max 
promised. Part of my problem was that one of the broadband folks said
there 
was a fault. This could simply mean the speed is dropping below their 
minimum threshhold and of course might say nothing about the physical
line. 
They also say that we are not charged for speed but for usage.
