bulldog147 · 16 Dec 2012 at 12:53

We just have to wait and see until Wednesday on the website to find out out what are the traffic management is like

bulldog147 · 16 Dec 2012 at 17:14

Yep I can see that

bulldog147 · 17 Dec 2012 at 02:01

Plusnet Unlimited for ADSL/ADSL2+/FTTC is a step forward ahead and sound very promise but what happen if there is 80% customers average of 150GB usage allowance per month while the rest of bad boys 20% did over 2TB a month - will Plusnet give out a warning letter to bad boys to cut down usage allowance or will be suspension ?

I will be ordering this later (Unlimited Fibre for 19.99). Presently I have Value fibre with the Pro Add on, but from what i understand the Pro Add on is not needed for unlimited if you play games.

Yes that is correct no need to add on for fibre unlimited

You have to cancel your BT order and then order from Plusnet. BT Openreach will not carries the work from BT to Plusnet (I know they work the same under BT) but BT policy is restrict their ruling must contact through their own internet service provide to amend or cancel order before BT Openreach carries out the work at the customer property. Avoid order exspecially over christmas period.

bulldog147 · 20 Dec 2012 at 16:58

U could try it but beware of messy up on the BT Openreach order system! (eg: double booking)

bulldog147 · 20 Dec 2012 at 17:31

It happen to me before with Openreach turned up (both of them at the same time double booking but BT Engineering isn't happy and blamed on two isp's side)

bulldog147 · 20 Dec 2012 at 21:53

did you order Unlimited Fibre Broadband or Essentials Fibre Broadband ?

There are two difference traffic management below:

bulldog147 · 20 Dec 2012 at 22:00

18 months contract seem a long time but I do hope plusnet kept their commit to the same traffic management for the next 18 months, but for price increasing in the next 18 months are surely go up sooner or later.

bulldog147 · 1 Jan 2013 at 12:06

And if u leave before 12 months it will be £66 cancellation fee but it will reduce each month by £5.50p on your remaining contract left. That's not bad but I doubt no ones will ever leave plusnet unlimited and a truely value money.

Plusnet rep: I am still under contracted with British Telecom until March 2013 for line rental with unlimited calls, so, could I switch over to Plusnet line rental with unlimited calls (will it affect my current broadband service with Plusnet like reset everything ?)

with emailing Openreach they explained my cabinet wasn't even being considered.

Any reason of why it won't re-consider to your area ?

Finally at last, my exchange is named for the next FTTC as BT named it today.

Cannot wait to switch from plusnet ADSL2+ to FTTC soon.

lol Apple TV remote control on your photo!

bulldog147 · 15 Feb 2013 at 15:46

When FTTC become available at my exchange next spring 2014, I will plugged onto BT Openreach Modem with my Netgear NGND3700 N600 High Performance wireless router on ethernet. Don't need plusnet router.

I know.......I've replaced the rather basic Technicolour router today with a Netgear WNDR3700v4 - much much better.

Yes indeed - Netgear is lots better as I think Plusnet should provided us free netgear as I use my Netgear NGND3700 N600 and it pretty very good wireless and it support ADSL/ADSL2/ADSL2+/Cable/FTTC

bulldog147 · 17 Feb 2013 at 17:08

Go for it - Plusnet FTTC is brill but I still on crappy ADSL2+ until 2014

But can't complaint thought as my adsl2+ still on 14.5 Meg all day (line speed)
