Default Broadband speed in the UK

I expect most members already know but this is a reminder that over 99% of telephone exchanges in the UK have now been upgraded to 8mbit capability. My ISP allows a regrade of my 2mbit line for a one off payment of £5 (monthly fee stays the same). The exact speed you get is down to how far you are from the exchange and line quality. I have been switched today and am now getting 5.6 mbit (wow -big differance from 2mbit). It is worth checking you ISP for a regrade.
