Seriously, I'd be interested to know what speeds you get with
'speedtest.net'. It's worth trying different servers as there can be
considerable variations.

With the London server I just got 5173 kbps d/l and 387 kbps ul

About ? hour ago http://www.mybroadbandspeed.co.uk/ gave me
5177 kbps d/l and 370 u/l.

Yes, but see my reply to MCC. I think 'mbs' gives unrealistically high readings. What do you get with the speed tester on the PLusnet portal - in 'connection settings'. I bet it's a lot less.
