This next link is a Broadband Availability Checker (yes i have posted one before) but this one requires that you enter your postcode & BT phone number and the read out you will get is something like this...


Broadband Availability Checker

Running live checks... please be patient...

Checking BT ADSL availability on your exchange... AVAILABLE
Your telephone line is capable of the following service: 2Mbps

Checking BT SDSL availability... UNAVAILABLE

Checking Bulldog LLU DSL availability... PARTIAL (ADSL is available only)

Checking Telewest cable availability... UNAVAILABLE

Checking NTL cable availability... AVAILABLE

Checking Easynet LLU DSL availability... AVAILABLE


I hope the above links will give some of you who want to gather as much info as possible on the BT exchange your conected to, personally i would only look for the trigger level totals & percentages of capacity etc as they are an important factor as ADSL is a conteded service (your local BT exchange & your isp)
