Will I ever get fast broadband?

Prophet · 17 Mar 2011 at 10:29

The estate I live on doesn't have cable so I'm limited to ADSL. The phone cables are underground and made from aluminium with my fastest ever download speed being 330K/Sec.

I use the master socked which helped slightly and have also tried a filter plate which didn't help at all.

Is there anything else I can do to improve the speed before I think about moving house?

have you checked your exchange too see what options you have available.

also, have you seen any mention of BT infinity to your area ?

Yeah I've checked. Basically ADSL2/LLU are my options. BT Infinity has no roll out date

have you checked your router stats, if theres adsl2/llu available you should be able to get better unless the actual line is crap.

I'm on ADSL2 already. I think the line just sucks!
