Thanks Tim, that's very useful to know.

I should have mentioned it in my initial message, but the lousy
200KB/s that I'm getting upstream is one of the bugbears of my current
service ... although it's nowhere near as irritating as the frequent
outages I experienced Aug-Dec 2011.

In past years Bethere conceded that one or two of the outages and
line-speed problems were due to errors at the exchange ... now they
admit nothing, even though the problems are far more common.
