Hi Trace.
Give plusnet's technical team a call and ask them to do a line check. It could
be that there is a problem with your line, exchange or their own broadband
network. If necessary and if the fault is a result of their making, they will
send out an engineer to examine and test your line at both your home and at the
exchange level. Are you using the master socket in your home? That is the
socket that directly connects you to the telephone pole outside and not an
extension? If you have tried connecting your equipment to the master socket
and the speed improves, there could be a problem with the wiring in your home
in which case you will need to contact either your landlord if your renting or
a local technician if you aren't.
Hope this is of some help.

Also are you both using the same ISP and/or are you both on the same
teleephone exchange?

Hi Steve
I thought it sounded strange as I can't be the only person in the world who
turns the computer on and off, rather than leaving it on all of the time as
some do, thanks, I'll get back to plusnet about it all.

Hi Trace,
The speed should be nothing to do with the router not being powered up.
Once the router is fully booted, it should be up to speed.
All the best
Steve

Hi
This kind of connects with my plusnet problem.
A friend of mine who has a virgin media account and the same connection
speed as I have carried out an experiment, we downloaded the same file at the
same time from sendspace [ring tones] to see how much slower my download speed
is to his, i it took my friend 7 minutes 21 seconds and it tooke me 28 minutes
and 3 seconds, the file was 25 megs in size.
I'd written to plusnet but had no reply so bit the bullet and went
online, I had problems getting supernova to let me write in the edit field at
first but with a bit of help from Mummy dearest [ my Mum] I got there, their
reply says that my slow down is because I don't leave the rooter powered up, I
know loads of people who don't do this and don't have this problem, can someone
explain if this is correct or not.
also, does the computer need to be on for the rooter to be powered up as
I often leave the power going to it but with the computer off?
Thanks
Trace
