Dai the Socket Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Is there a program you can download to find out what your internet speed your're actually running on?

TomN Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Isn't 576k only going up to 1Mb, or are they putting everyone up to the heighst connection possiable? Tom ← 576k and 1mb are going up to 2mb and 56k is going to 576k. Can't wait for mine in April :( . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PythonRider Posted March 6, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 576k and 1mb are going up to 2mb and 56k is going to 576k. Can't wait for mine in April :) . ← Right.... Customers who are on 512k and pay £17.99 a month (Bt Broadband Basic) will be upgraded to 1Mb with a 1Gb Monthly Cap Customers who are on 512k and pay £24.99 a month (Normal Bt Broadband) will be upgraded to 2Mb with a 15Gb Monthly cap Customers who are on 512k and pay £26.99 a month (Bt Yahoo! Broadband) will be upgraded to 2Mb with a 15Gb Monthly cap. Customers who are on 1Mb and pay £29.99 a month (Bt Yahoo! Broadband) will be upgraded to 2Mb with a 30Gb Monthly cap. All these upgrades do however depend on wheather you are with a certian distance of the exchange for now...... For example, I have been upgraded but Fatmike who lives about 1 min down the road has not. Eventually every customer will be upgraded to either 2Mb or 1Mb connection Hope I cleared things up :) Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted March 6, 2005 Report Share Posted March 6, 2005 I thought that dial-up (56k) insternet was being axed? And they were just changing everyone over to 128k broadband for the same prices? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
