Re: Plusnet no longer 'Totally Unlimited'

Presumably most speedtests measure and display data throughput speeds. Assuming a 1492 MTU, adding the size of the TCP and IP headers, the result is pretty much the same as the IP profile:
75.30 × 1492/1452 = 77.37
Which should be expected since the IP profile figure allows for most of the overheads.

Re: Plusnet no longer 'Totally Unlimited'

The changes to the wording are just that, wording. The packages are still unlimited, no rate limits or restrictions.
