Hurry up

Clondalkin (Nangor Road Exchange) got upgraded during the night

DSL now 3072 / 384
ISP Test is showing 2.11 Mbps down / 326kbps up
Average Ping to boards.ie is 11ms
Average Ping to Jolt.co.uk is 19ms

Pings are certainly inproved but I never had a major problem with them anyways. Although the upload is greatly improved I have a concern with the download speed which while improved a bit its lower than I expected. Should a 3Mb line be only getting 2.10 Mbps. When running ISP Test the download speed initally starts off at 2.67 Mbps but quickly drops to 2.10 and then remains there for the rest of the test.

Hi,

Anyone know what is happening with the Blanchardstown Exchange.

My home connection with BT is still stuck at 1024/128 and the Office connection on same exchange With Eircom) went from 4M/256k to 5m/386K Thought it was supposed to go to 512k upload.

Very strange. Have re set modem, re connected etc and still showing 1m/128k

Anyone else seeing strange results in Blanchardstown. Assumed that one upgraded would be all upgraded.

The upgrade work is due to continue until 6pm this evening. Hang in there.
Not trying to be smart but are you sure you're connected to the Blanchardstown exchange? Sometimes there can be a couple of exchanges covering the same area.
Put your number into the line checker here (http://www.smarttelecom.ie) to make sure.

Shane O' Malley

Yes, Tried that

Both home and office on same exchange.

And i saved downloading a couple of movies waiting for the upgrade.

Pings are disappointing

Yeah same here on Monasterevin exchange,im about quarter of a mile from exchange but pings are almost same as before for me also,disappointing.
Downloads are 330kbps but i wanted nice pings.
Wonder what the story is with this exchange.

Download speed is flaking away at a handy 250+KB/s and upload speed is now at 38 to 40KB/s. Tried the ISP test, and while there was definitely improvement over yesterdays test (especially in upload), the tester must be gettin hammered so will wait and see for a proper result in a week or two. Got a ping of about 23ms from boards.ie, not bad really?

The upgrade makes a hell of a difference for bittorrent I can tell ya!

Cheers BT!

oh yeah and does anyone know if the increased 30GB cap applies for the month of January, or will it only start from Feb?

My speeds are terrible at the moment

896 down /160 up on a 2mb (soon to be 3mb) line, it always says 2048/128

Is this to be expected because of the upgrade ?

I started to download a linux iso from heanet and the speed was around 310KB\s.

My upload still seems low average upload to my web host was around 9KB\s, although I don't know if my flatmate is uploading anything.
