Something's Changed : 20Mbit :-))))))))
Just logged into the router, as I'd noticed it'd gone into DLM for a 2nd time about a week ago. First time was back in March when we first went live.
I downloaded a 700MB Linux ISO on Saturday, and thought it was quick (touch wood).
So the question is, what's changed? Why?

I think it is obvious, you are one of the first to report Sky's new faster speed for Max users.
