6.2Mbps on BT but only quoted 3.5Mbps on Be*
Hello,

We have BT Business Broadband at work, which is ADSL, and we get a nice speed of 6.2Mbps (Synced at around 7.2). The other day I rang Be*There who quoted the maximum speed I could get on ADSL2+ was... 3.5Mbps!!!

How does that work? I thought ADSL2+ was supposed to be FASTER than ADSL is?

They told us we're around 3KM from the exchange, which sounds about right going by the graph attached.

Because of this news, we're not going to be moving to Be*There, which is a great disappointment because being a web designer I could really have used the up to 2.5Mbps upload instead of the 446Kbps I get on BT...
