Did I miss an announcement somewhere.

This morning I logged on and got (for the first time I think!) a 
33,600 link to the 01488-559666 number (Energis?). NT didn't 
take a long time to negotiate the connection - unlike the Colt 
numbers. I tries a few times 3 out of four were 33,600.

I had been under the impression that only the Colt ROMP had 
33.600 capability, but the price paid (for NT users) was the 
long negotiation. I couldn't resist updating my speed tests from 
a few weeks ago (all nos are kb/sec download speeds from FTP)

Phone Number/OS    Fulfile     Emptyfile   Regularfile       

589666 (NT 3.51)    3.47         5.98         6.00

The previous results were

NT3.51
589666 (Energis?)   2.75         4.73         4.77
0845 3535666 (Colt) 3.21         4.99         5.00
WfW 3.11
589666 (Energis?)   2.63         7.67         8.11
0845 3535666 (Colt) 3.06         4.82         4.85

So the changes to the Energis link have been really beneficial.

Anyone know what happened?
