Anyone on here ordered it or gone live yet , have you had any issues with throughput and re-sync speeds?

BTW for those of you that dont know anywhere that is enabled for Broadband can now get 8mb (if your ISP supports it)

I went live monday.
No issue with throughput although there is a bug with that.
Should turn your router off the night its supposed to be happening.
I could only get 512k before and synched at about 2500 atm.
Hopefully go up to at least 3 tomorrow as i've had no problems.

plus.net are rolling this 8mb offer to all customer's IF your line can support it.

I bought the 2mb package last year and they say if it doesn't support the full 8mb I can expect a hike to around 5.5mb free of charge (5.5mb is an average figure apparently)

I can get it on this exchange but I'm not getting upgraded until all the business customers are done apparently. I'm only on the cheap one.

You haven't got a 256k line either.
You have whatever line speed and pay for 256k.
You somehow get way over that.
