Upgrade to Adsl2+

Hi I recently moved my Mum to BT from another provider. However the connection is super slow. She's been going crazy as she can't video call her Mum or other family. I can't get up straight away but from what I can tell I think she's on adsl speeds which aren't great particularly upload. Can she be moved on to Adsl2+ as I believe that's what she was on with previous providers again judging by speed's. Thanks.

For all ADSL and WBC Fibre to the Cabinet (VDSL or G.fast) services, the stable line rate will be determined during the first 10 days of service usage.

 

Actual speeds experienced by end users and quoted by CPs will be lower due to a number of factors within and external to BT's network, Communication Providers' networks and within customer premises.

 

The Stop Sale date for IPstream is from 30 Nov 2012. The Formal Retirement date for IPstream is from 30 Jun 2014.

 

If you decide to place an order for a WBC fibre product, an appointment may be required for an engineer to visit the end user's premises to supply the service

 

In order to be eligible for handback, downstream speed should be less than Downstream Handback Threshold values.

 

Thank you for your interest

@Beki88 

Fibre 1 or fibre 2 is available, and they would be much better for video calls,

You can upgrade online, or by calling 0800 800 030.

Re: Upgrade to Adsl2+



in order for the forum members to help please can you post the stats from your router (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser) and if  HH5 then go to troubleshooting then helpdesk and if HH6/SH2 then advanced settings then technical log information . 

as already posted the connection is VDSL Fibre 2  not adsl as you posted.  based on dslchecker connection wi running well and well within expected range


Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem
