No, but if you read a bit further down the bulletin it mentions Leicester :)

Network re-organisation may result in broadband customers in the Leicester areas having to reboot their machines to restore their connection during this maintenance window:

This is normally stuff like router software upgrades - I doubt it is the speed changes. (but you can always hope ;))

Thats because leic wasnt involved in the main upgrade yesterday , my mate from northants tested his download and got 150k/s earliar, but isnt online atm so cant ask him to do a proper test :(

I *think* it was a dhcp server upgrade, which would explain the IP change. I know it's hot today, but the calendar is scarcely late summer, so don't get your hopes up just yet.

I was hoping I would use it before I downgrade, as I am downgrading in 2 days at the start of the price rise month.

Summer hasn't started yet, late summer is a while away yet. :)

Its only a config file update 3 months (including time already waiting) is an aweful long time to achieve such a simple change.

Speed increase can be anytime until october, when bst officially ends.

Wrong.

British Summer Time has nothing to do with Summer.

Spring is March 21st to June 20th. Summer begins on June 21st.
