My service is still at that new level of over 16. I tested my Homeplug connected (sorry, GG) second desktop yesterday and to day, and that seems to be in the 10 (yesterday) to 13(to-day) range. I suspect that the 10 was due to the pc doing something, but as it doesn't get used much, I don't know what it was doing. (Sorry about these numbers, Mike. You deserve them more than me)

As to "real" world impact, the wi-fi TVs have not been any different, and I haven't downloaded any big files. Upload speeds have gone up to about 0.9, but I haven't used that for anything.
So whilst I'm pleased with the change, it'll be a little while before I can report on real world stuff. I'm going to set up my Sky anytime+ sometime soon. That'll show me........

Sky Anytime+
 

Just a quick update.
My new BT speed is still over 16. That's good.
I decided to take advantage of this and installed Sky Anytime + over wi-fi to my main tv.
After a few hiccups, which Sky seemed keen to solve, (maybe BT should hire Sky's customer service boss?), it all works fine and seems very quick.
So my first real world benefit of a better BT speed is quick Sky Anytime plus.

Enough of technology, says SWMBO. Sort out that garden....

Are you paying for 80mb?:ugh: 16 is only JUST over the minimum speed at which they will connect you to 'Infinity'!

Another little anecdote about the wonderful company. My 'Surrey Mole' tells me that the much delayed 'upgrade' of Cranleigh and Ewhurst has been further delayed due to the muppets concreting the new cabinet in to the road outside Cranleigh Post Office exactly 180 degrees back to front so no-one can access it to connect anything. It has to be dug up again.

Bear in mind that Jeremy Hunt proposes giving almost £830 million of OUR money to them to 'improve broadband' to give us nearly the 'worst in Europe' by 2015 - and quite a bit of this money will probably go to Muppets Inc..

The EU are insisting on 30mb EVERYWHERE by 2020 and BT just cannot do this. We are waiting to hear from HMG.............who are planning 24mb - or 2mb+ if you are in the sticks.

Just been told that BT and Fujitsu have now 'signed up' to the BDUK scheme, so we wait with baited breath for Jeremy to tell us more! IE Do we have to target 24mb, 30 mb or what?:confused:

BOAC.
No, I'm paying for "up to 20". I used to get 4 - 6. Many attempts to improve did sfa. 16 is a plus for me
