    Plusnet did switch some customers to Tiscali LLU several years ago, but they have not used their network since they were taken over by BT nearly two years ago.

    Several years ago, strange that the deal was confirmed on 24 March 2006 then! here
    Today it confirmed that following successful trials it has inked a wholesale deal to make use of Tiscali's local loop unbundling (LLU) infrastructure.

    :rolleyes:

    Whatever, however the OP asked for advice about Plusnet now not two years ago, your statement
    Well as Plusnet make use of the Tiscali network where they can, yes.

    is now factually incorrect and misleading.:rolleyes:

    Your statement was factually incorrect!

    Did Plusnet replace everybody's modems and routers when they stopped using the Tiscali LLU network then? No, and this tells us that the Belkin wireless router will work fine on Plusnet now, as previously stated before your pedantic post #5.

    What is your problem?

    You obviously do not like to be proved wrong, the OP asked a question about Plusnet, you gave him incorrect information,

    >Well as Plusnet make use of the Tiscali network where they can.<

    They do not and have not for about eighteen months, what was pedantic about my post I merely pointed out that they no longer use Tiscali network, most people would have just acknowledged the correction and got on with life, but no not you.

    You then have to take the thread off topic because I used the words several years, the exact date when Plusnet did switch some customers is unimportant, I could not be bothered to look it up as it is irrelevant to the OP, and then you end with a sarcastic smiley.

    I thought these forums were supposed to help people, posting information that is now incorrect and misleading is hardly being helpful, still you seem to set yourself up as an expert so carry on.:rolleyes:

    I do not have a problem, you are the one with the broken handle on life!

    It is irrelevant how Plusnet supply their customers with ADSL and I did say yes in post #4 however you chose not to quote that.

    I knew that you would bite though!
