Sadly ineffectively too.
For now I'll keep it to myself however those who use their Internet connection's bandwidth as a proxy for penis size should be pretty happy.
As it's already been mentioned the top tier will be about the equivalent of BT Infinity 4.

They'll probably send an engineer if they want the kit returning. I had a box to return kit, engineer turned up, ripped kit out of box and left me to dispose of box..............and not chuffed with engineer!! Letter said kit MUST be returned in box supplied.
