"we cant do anyting about the slow speed, we can only check the signels, whats happed is this area is not ready for 20mb nor are most of the other areas. they need to upgread their inftastructure.
i would advice u to downgread to 4 or 2 meg. i have 2meg at home and i get around 1.5mb. u get ur moneys worth. plus there r soo many people subscribing now, that the servers cant handel it, thats why they need to upgread too. too many ppl on the server."
Hmmm. Not when it's spelt incorrectly. I know that the engineer wouldn't say whats quoted above.

SE3 here.Too far from an exchange to even consider adsl i think but i`m watching BE movers with interest.I get better speeds out of our 1Mb STB or even the neighbours wireless signals at times(with permission)
Not only can i not tell you just what this so-called work is but the actual engineer himself could`nt tell me too much either.
Anthing he did tell me is mentiond in post 11 in this thread...
