Yes, most likely as TalkTalk is upgrading ALL customers to "Up to 24Mb" speeds on its own LLU equipment.
See:
tinyurl.com/2cz6tmb or the broadband packages info on its website.
Incidentally, if you are on LLU and perhaps still restricted by DLM (Dynamic Line Management) on "Up to 8Mb", go onto the TT Members' Forums>Broadband Speed and Web Browsing and request a profile update. You have to register first.
The OCEs who look after the forums can do the changes for you and will follow up requests to further lower the sync figure (and other configuration if necessary) if you find connections continue to be stable; a slower but more stable profile is normally the Default by TT (and other ISPs).
My SNR is now down to 6dB (originally 15db) and will go as low as 2dB or 3dB in the later part of the evening. You will normally also get more upstream and downstream bandwidth.
