For those that think they will get the full speed on ADSL i suggest you put you BT number in here and check. I bet most of you will get 4 meg or less.

I have just spent 3 very annoying months on ADSL and in the end i could not get above 4 meg with any of the providers.

here are my sam knows results for you to look at.



BT ADSL broadband availability
You are connected to the Warrington telephone exchange.

ADSL is available in your areaYour exchange is also enabled for ADSL Max services
According to BT Wholesale, your line should be able to support a 4.5Mbps or greater ADSL connection via ADSL Max.

Standard ADSL RAG results:
You can receive 2Mbps ADSL
You can receive 1Mbps ADSL
You can receive 512Kbps ADSL
You can receive 256Kbps ADSL

You are approximately 1.38km from the exchange (straight line distance)


1.38km and i could only get 4 meg. I can see the roof of the exchange from my back windows for gods sake.



I get this from Wanadoo


Phone number 019254***** can receive broadband at speeds of up to 2Meg.




And this from Ukonline aka SKY Broadband.

Due to overwhelming demand for our services in your area, we will be delivering your services using BT's network. Currently £9.99 Broadband and 22Mb Broadband is not available in your area. We anticipate being able to offer these services soon. You can however still choose from our great unlimited broadband services below.

So thats no ADSLmax and NO ADSL2+

Been like that for over 3 months now




And remember all of these speeds are for a BT line that is 1.35km line of sight 2.4 km true distance.
