new ISP (UK)

gazzthompson · 2009-11-08, 17:39

Currently on 02 access and they suck major balls for peak time traffic, so im getting out of here !!!!

anyway, i need another ISP. unlimited would be preferred but i could live with DL limits.

SamKnows Broadband - Availability - Watton (EAWTN) Exchange

my exchange (not the best

)

also, can i figure out my current download per month ? so i know how much of a limit i need. Currently looking at:

I'd straight away recommend BeThere, but they share the same line as 02, so if you're getting bad speeds with 02 then I wouldn't go for them.

If you can, get Virgin Media's cable.

For gods sake avoid Tiscali, worst ISP ever.

Im on virgin and the only down side is there throttling depending on the package you have,

20meg limited to 3gb acording to the link below but downloading a fresh copy of BF2 and patches and the PR files I was managed after 1.5gb. From a 1.25meg download to 256kb max. after 12am it wnet back to full speed. Appart from that I get a full 20meg connection and hardly any dropps inconection may be 2 in the last 12months. I would recomend it over any ADSL provider.
