Demon moving people to 2Mbps

Well it's about time, being stuck on the old original ADSL product myself like so many other early adopters and trialists, we had no upgrade path to higher speeds, without a couple of weeks of downtime. Yes we love the good old engineer install.

Well all that changed a few hours ago when Demon announced they were going to move everybody up to 2Mbps or whatever their phone line supported. Although it's primarily a BT thing it's nice that Demon have finally announced it (most ISPs did months ago).

All the exchanges should be upgraded by September.

I Couldn't agree more. I was about to despair with Demon, also having been an early trialist/adopter. I guess there is hope for us diehards yet!

Oh, I almost forgot; any word from anyone out there on how we can track the BT DSLAM upgrades and how to verify that you have been upgraded? Call me cynical, but I don't expect I'll notice the change in speed easily ;)
