Even though our exchange is due to be upgraded for FTTC in March there is no plan for it to come to our cabinet. Lots of new FTTC cabinets have appeared but our local PCP remains untouched. According to my ISP there is no planned date for our cabinet. This is the small print in the Infinity publicity – not all cabinets get it.

So we are stuck on 2Mbs ADSL and a Three tethered phone on the One Plan which is increasingly putting the slow ADSL out of use. My record from the phone is now 9.1Mbs on the bedroom window sill.

I’ve upgraded my mobile to a Galaxy Nexus which has HSPA+. I now get much better speeds on Three that put my ADSL to shame.
