Entanet's recent decision to impose more restrictive off-peak broadband usage hours upon all of its existing ADSL products (Thursdays news) has been delayed. The move follows pressure from Entanet's vISP clients, which includes the likes of Aquiss, ADSL24, UKFSN and many more.

The change, which was originally due to take effect from 2nd January 2009, gave Entanet's clients very little time to adjust their products and appeared to cause some considerable frustration among many end-users too.

Entanet quickly responded by delaying the change until 19th January 2009, thus giving a fair 30 days of notice. However a new customer service update from the founder of Aquiss, Martin Pitt, states that the adjustment has now been put on hold pending further discussions:


Most existing 'up to' 8Mbps products currently have an off-peak period of 22:00 to 08:00 weekdays and Friday 22:00 through to Monday 08:00. Under the new rules this would have changed to the stricter regime of 00:00hrs to 08:00hrs (7 days a week).
