With the L and XL services I believe the engineer doesn't install the router. It should be the same for XXL, but I'm not 100% sure.

It won't try as it will only give the websites server speed download from gamesfiles.blueyonder.co.uk and see what speed you get

It is his fault as he should of done it, router is easy to install, when loading up pages make sure ou have cleared your cache, or try openDNS
