    Well off topic this, but you never know with this place.

    According to www.samknows.co.uk my local exchange (Solihull) supports
    ADSL and ADSL Max. It also has Sky LLU.

    Now, the site reports that BT ADSL Max can give me 3Mbps and normal
    ADSL can give me 1Mbps.

    It doesn't say how quick Sky's LLU can go though. Is there any way I
    can find out? It does say that LLU services can simply be a resale of
    the BT IPStream product or their own but it doesn't say which is which
    in the case of this exchange.

    Is it likely Sky could provide a faster service than BT?

    Not that I'm worried anyway as I have cable which Virgin have
    helpfully bumped up to 10Mbps for free, but a chap from Sky came round
    door knocking last night trying to flog it.

    If you know your attenuation and snr numbers for the line it's easy to
    estimate, but my guess is if you're only getting 3 on ADSL max it won't
    be more than 7 on ADSL2+.

    I've got know way of knowing anything because I've got a cable phone
    line at the moment.

    Too risky I think.
