      no, and what you've got now is good!! well, I say no but perhaps moving to GDMT might give an extra 500kbps...

      I agree with what IWasNotTheEnemy says, if you want that little extra speed the have the mode changed, but if the connection is working well i would leave it as it is as that speed is very good for that attenuation.

      Thanks... Its actually been very stable since Sky moved my line over to their new system.
      Before that it was dreadful.

      You have done very well, alot of people that are moved to the new network have nothing but problems with the poor speed, you seem to be one of the lucky ones.

      I went from 1.5mb with continuous disconnections to 3mb and stable connection.
      Its just a shame I can't get a little closer to the 20mb I am paying for
