Upload speeds
Posted by Rob S on September 9th, 2005


Anyone know of UK plans for upload ADSL speeds to be increased - they all seem
to be stuck on 256kbps regardless of which package you go for.

SDSL seems to be prohibitively expensive for small businesses still.....

Yes, BT will be releasing BT Max ADSL in the first half of next year that
will rate adapt between 2Mbps and 8Mbps downstream. Upstream will go up
to 0.5Mbps or so I believe for home users and higher for business users.

If you're on an unbundled exchange you can probably get higher upstream
anyway. I've got 512Kbps upstream with UK Online.

F2S are customers of LLUStream from Easynet, parent company of UKOnline,
hence the faster uploads. BT IPStream will still be restricted to
256Kbps.

Interesting stuff. Do you just *get* the faster upload, or have you tweaked your
modem/router/PC somehow?

cheers

Have to wait for LLU operators to storm the market place - SDSL is
cheaper than ADSL both to provision and run.
But old POTS management are still fsking around.

Bring on LLU and we shall see!!!

No tweaks. Router syncs at 3488Kbps downstream and 512Kbps upstream on my
service with UK Online.

Of course, you have to be on an exchange that has been unbundled by
Easynet/UKOnline to get those speeds.

I'm on Broadband 8000 (though can't get 8Mbps download due to my line).
Router is synced at 512Kbps for upstream despite what it says on the web
site.
