Well, I'm 2.90km from the exchange (straight line distance), but the distance along the wire is 4.9 (as BT once told me).
Yes, I realised this, but I'm still confused as to where I got the 5.5km from.
I believe it's the old (pre RADSL) figure for the maximum distance you could be from the exchange and still get ADSL. I think it's up to at least 8km these days.
