Guest   #1 Posted September 27, 2005 Hi all,  Does anyone know the location of BT phone exchanges in the city centre? I live on Riverside Exchange and I've been told I can only get 1Mbps. Being so close I think this is a bit odd, just wondered where the exchange is so I can see how far I am away.  Cheers  Paul.

bigflesh   10 #2 Posted September 27, 2005 Your probably served by the Sheffield Central Exchange on Charter Row. But its all about physical line length, not as the crow flies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Well even in a really rounabout way that google comes up with it's only 1.5miles so I'll see what my provider says to a regrade!

lalaland   10 #4 Posted September 27, 2005 I'm with Plusnet and originally they told me I could only go up to 1 meg, but the other week I got an email saying they'd moved me up to 2 meg for no extra cost since BT had done some work on the exchange.  Nice eh?
