However, if you'd said to me 10 years ago that I'd have a 29 Mb/s

even support 512k, and in 2011 I'd be watching 720p HD TV
programmes on it, I'd have called you mad.

Things have changed, and improved, and will continue to do so.

Well, to be fair, we were one of the first towns in the UK to have
VDSL/FTTC, (not least because all the posh homes are five miles from
the exchange).

No point, there are no plans. At all. Ever, probably.

How did it know for that? I don't have a PVR, so I have no experience

Doesn't have a PVR!?

I'm a Luddite. I have a Sony Walkman, but no iPod/Pad. I don't need
them.
The last I heard, my brother still didn't have a TV set. And he is old
enough to have retired.
I'm not, but I have done so anyway.

Luddites are fine, it's Luddites without PVRs that have to be burnt.

All these are the sync speed reported by the router; the typical
throughput as reported by speedtest.net is a bit lower (eg around 7
Mbps on my line with 8 Mbps sync).

I check every now and then using the iplayer 'diagnostics' page as that is
the route and server that are most relevant from my POV. I usually get a
tad over 2 megs.

Slainte,

Just did that, but don't understand the jargon of what it showed - apart
from noting that FTTC is a cross, not a tick.

You need to move to a 'not as nice as you're in now' area I suspect :-(
