I had a 1mb from Blueyonder and it did suck the big one for the first two months, then magically came to life!
Well worth it.

Reminds me... my girlfriend is getting a 10mbps connection in her apartment next month, while a friend is waiting on his VDSL 26mbps connection before Christmas... this is, of course, in Sweden.

Bah.

Their entire population of their country is less than Greater Manchester too, bah!

Here's me with a 512k ADSL connection

Work for a major isp.... We got multi 2.5g backbones which are currently being upgraded to 10g!

Damn I wish I could tap some of that power! But where would I plug me laptop!

I know NTL provide a 34mbit connection. I had to do sum research on it for a project, if i remember correctly installation was suttin like $5000 plus £1xx,xxx a year. But its symmetric if thats any help to ya.

At home im on 2mbit ADSL, not bad at all

**m2c4u** · 21-09-2003, 10:54 AM

As soon as NTL releases a 2MB line I will be on it

**Zathras** · 21-09-2003, 02:51 PM

Pah, fear the 100mbps connection I had at uni. Often noone using my switch and minimal users onto the gigabit fibre across the uni.

**Nemeliza** · 21-09-2003, 09:54 PM

That musta terrorised your hard drive.

**Zathras** · 21-09-2003, 10:00 PM

Well, I had to scrape together the finances for a new 120gb drive earlier this week after getting sick to death of writing CDRs

Shame all filesharing was blocked though, as were most games. Enemy Territory worked, but it was a shame that it coincided with my Finals. Enemy Territory won

Yep, you just can't beat JANET (academic backbone in the UK) - I've had some terrifyingly fast downloads, especially when the steowdants are away. They're back soon

**Shepps** · 24-09-2003, 10:28 PM

just upgraded from 512k for 1mb, its brilliant

can have several large downloads going, and still get em quicker than getting one of 512k

**3Dfx** · 26-09-2003, 11:25 AM

Stop complaining...im on 56k V.92 (sorry but V.92 is important to me)

LOL

**xfactor** · 26-09-2003, 12:02 PM

Yeah true ... when I was living on the uni campus, I had some fantastic download speed thanks to JANET ... wow... sweet memories ...

LOL Now stuck to adsl 512k
