ADSLGuide is carrying further details of BTWholesale's IPStream Home 2000 (2Mbps ADSL) trial. BT is currently putting together a list of ISP's and the trial itself will begin testing on 29th November 2004:
For now it is a case of waiting for the service providers to decide whether to take part in the trials, and then publish details of how you can join the trials. Do remember that the limits for a 2Mbps are much stricter than the current 1Mbps limits, with a BT tested line loss of less than 43dB needed. Generally it is expected that around 60% of lines will support a 2Mbps service.Initially ISP's will be limited to placing just 50 orders using the manual system, although this becomes unrestricted after 29th.
