Will do Chris :thumbup: I have been led to believe it will be late next week but I have had no confirmation yet I have to order a new wireless router now as Infinity requires a cable router and not a adsl router |

Gents, With BT, I get on average around 40mb download and around 8 to 9mb upload from my BT fibre connection. I am at the outer limit from my exchange at just over 3 kms. Depending on the time of day (brats playing on the internet etc) that can become a max of over 50mb down to around a min download of 20mb, upload never really varies. BT installed new cable runners, and it ended up right next to my computer. BT also supplied the modem and seperate home hub, which can supply both wireless and up to 4 hard wired connections. I went for the hard wire to my computer, as the speed is about 50% faster. The cost for installation was £5 (including modem etc) Mine ended up as unlimited download, line rental and free anytime calls within the UK with some free to mobile communications, which I never use. After the £8 initial discount within 3 months of setup (20 squid at the moment) will be 28 squid per month. I don't take any of the television channel packages as I see enough repeated garbage with freeview. That is a lot less than when I was with BeThere, and they were only supplying 6mb down (up to 24mb ADSL2) and 1mb up on the old copper wire system. After being on it for 6 weeks, I have not had any real problems at all, except in the initial 14 days learning and setup time. But those disappeared very quickly. Bogs |

I wish I had that sort of connection ... :drool: I sometimes get so fed up with sky I turn off my computer and try again later! I`m impressed to hear it is unlimited download and at that sort of a price it seems well worth the money. I think I`m going to have to grin and bear it with Sky even though my contract is now out rather than tie myself into another contract with someone else. It is just whether BT stick to their available date of July for it being ready in my town. Chris |

It's not cheap, but here @ home Virgin Media do a fair job of supplying fast internet (fast in UK terms at least): I've changed to BT broadband @ the office, I only get around 6.5mbps/0.6mpbs speeds there. |
