one day i will post in a thread without talking nonsense.
remember that 30gb is just peak allowance. you'd have 300gb off peak on the 19.99 package.

Im on office max 45 with UKFSN, have been for a while now, and Im pretty impressed, bar a few issues now and then, it's been far and away better than pipex(same company as eclipse) who I used to be with.
half an hour tops.
VeNT Eclipse have changed that rule if you look on yout online account, I did the other week, then swapped ISP to adsl24 I connect at 7.5mbps at the moment

Id recomend ADSL24, had them for a while before I moved house and could get Be
First rate support, network is excellent (very good if you play games) and the traffic caps are pretty generous IMO, especially as the weekend counts as off peak too, so if you wanted to to any big downloads do them then when they come out of the 330Gb allowance .
The actual changeover takes about 7-10 working days to arrange after supplying the MAC code to Enta, however the process itself will normally only leave your connection down for a few minutes.

Yep. Wait up to 3 days, and it should change. If not, you have to wait for 10 days till they're allowed to report it to BT.

Aye what he said, its due to the speed stabilisation processes in the ADSL max technology - after 3 days of stable sync speed with no speed fluctuations, your IP profile changes to allow this higher speed, however before it limits you to your previous maximum, as its having to ascertain whether your line can maintain a stable connection at those 800KBps.
The upside of this technology is that it means that after a week or two of up and down, it should be able to set a speed, where you line will retain a stable sync speed, the downside being that if you resync for whatever reason at a lower speed (thunderstorm for example), you'll likely be stuck at this new 'peak' for the next 3 days, til ADSL max switches you back up again, after which your IP profile will change to the new lowest stable sync rate.
Sorry if that seems a little convoluted, it should make sense if read a few times ^_^
ADSL2+ service.
ok its been the same over the weekend, synced at 8meg (woot) really close to exchange (sub 400m) and low noise on line, should get 8meg or atleast 6 or so I'd have thought!
any idea why I'm connected at 8 (still) but only getting 1.95

Yes, same reason as last time. The BRAS Profile is stuck. As I said before, your ISP won't budge until 10 days is up.
