    Broadband - how to find out maximum speed possible on my line?

    How can I find out the maximum speed available on my phone line? I'm hardly out in the sticks, but I've been told by my ISP that I can't get anything faster than 512 Kbps (what I'm on now). I'd like to verify this ... any idea how/where? TIA :)

    Broadband Supplier

    I am very disillusioned with my present supplier (Wanadoo). When I took out my subscription it was for an unlimited download usage. Now they have threatened to cut me off if I exceed 40Gb? As far as I’m aware I have never got near that figure, but Wanadoo state it is not my downloads that is...

    UKOnline cheap broadband

    For those of you who saw the UK Online advert in the Metro this morning advertising 512k unlimited broadband for £9.99. Seems its only available from certain exchanges, if you aren't connected to one of these then the price is £19.99 which isn't such a great deal :( More details here...

    1mb Broadband - wow!

    I've just upgraded my ADSL connection to 1Mbps with Eclipse (Business 1000; 20:1 contention ratio) and ... OH MY GOD! What a difference. MBClub loads instantly, everything's so much "snappier". Of course, some sites still load slowly (but not ours, cheers Maff :D ). ADSLGuide reports 931Kbps...

    Are you happy with your Broadband mob? I wasn't!

    Long story, but I have hand enough of the crap customer service at Pipex. Really loved their broadband, but in my experience (3 connections, 3.5 years) their phone based customer service is not as good as it could be. Helpful people working within a hopeless infrastructure. All I wanted...

    BT ASDL Broadband

    Yes, yes, I know. However, lady in my office has just ordered said item and I think she will have a problem as our IT gurus have disabled the USB sockets on all our work laptops because of "inappropriate" use. So she needs to connect USB-free laptop via the Ethernet socket and also link up...
