BT have upgraded our broadband

I am very sorry, this should have gone out last week but had been lurking in my drafts folder since my computer was playing up.

This is great news, especially for those who haven't got Infinity yet.
As well as the hardware upgrade at the exchange, there is appreciably less "contention" as subscribers release exchange capacity by moving to Infinity. The fibres don't go through the exchange at all.
Of course, this particular upgrade will benefit Baschurch more than Ruyton XI Towns - we still have 4km of copper if subscribers remain on ADSL2+ rather than change to Infinity.

We’ve upgraded your broadband line
Hello,

Good news

This is to let you know that we've now upgraded your line and you should now have an improved, more consistent broadband connection, and maybe a speed increase.
You can find out more at bt.com/networkupgrade

Remember your line needs time to settle down

For the next ten days, your broadband might slow down or even stop now and again. That's normal and it'll soon settle down. You can help it along by leaving your BT Home Hub on and using your broadband as much as you can for this time.

Equipment playing up?

  • If you have BT Vision and you get an on-screen error message (V04), please restart your BT Vision box by holding down the power button for about six seconds.
  • If other things connected to your phone or broadband line are playing up, you might need to restart them too.
  • If you’ve tried the above and still have problems, try our help pages or call us on 0800 111 4567.

Try our Broadband Accelerator

The BT Broadband Accelerator can help improve your broadband speed by up to 1.5Mb. It filters out electrical interference from your TVs, lights and other everyday equipment that could be slowing down your internet. As a BT broadband customer, you can order one free online – all you pay is the £1.30 postage (one per household). Order yours or find out more at bt.com/accelerator

Is this about BT Infinity?

No, this upgrade is part of our ongoing network improvements. If we can offer you BT Infinity, our super fast fibre broadband service, we’ll let you know in a separate email or letter. Or you can check availability at www.bt.com/infinity
Thanks for choosing BT,
Warren Buckley
