And to think that in 2001/2002 BT refused to provide any ADSL service, saying my line was far too long for even 512k to work :-)

I had to wait 2 1/2 years because of BT's obduracy. My theory is that they thought that they could keep their costs down by not bothering with the problems of long (high loss) lines.

Me too. I was first told my line was incapable of supporting ADSL.
Now I get 2.5Mb on ADSL Max.

I think they reckoned I'd get 1.9Mbps, I actually get 3500 or so profiled at 3Mbps.


The connectin is certaun;y stable ENOUGH Yes it does flop occasionally in cold weather and has gone down as slow as 3200, but mostly its between 3500 and 4000.
