    Re: BeThere.co.uk - Wow

    I've had a play with it using my scantalk SIP account and it works fine

    Took me a few attempts to get it working, but once it was okay.

    Now I've reverted back to my software phone on my PC as the routers nowhere near my room.

    does, anyone know if the Linksys ADSL2MUE modem will work with Be?

    if not, would it be best to let my current router (WRT54GL) handle the wireless? considering the beboxes reportedly flaky wireless

    Re: BeThere.co.uk - Wow

    When i connected in January i couldn't get more than 2mb down, when talking to customer support to resolve the issue i had a very pleasurable experience. Saying that my previous isp was Nildram and if their customer support answered the phone within 2 hours it was a miracle, so could be a case of swapping awful for slightly better.

    i believe its best to either use your current router for wireless as you say (yes, the bebox is not so good for wireless reliability OR signal strength), or pick up either a Netgear DG834G or a DG834N, these use the chipset that that a Be connection loves, my DG834N actually syncs slightly faster than the bebox.

    on the other hand my D-Link DSL-G624M, which i am using for wireless (because its ruddy brilliant) until i get a wireless N adapter has problems getting anything like the bebox speed even though its ADSL2+ certified, this is true with a good lot of dsl modems so be careful and do your research if your buying one special.

    well, as appealing as the DG834G looks... it has a slower processor than my wrt54gl and (if what i have been reading is correct) doesn't support port forwarding(!)

    eh, i think i will pass...

    Re: BeThere.co.uk - Wow

    I've got a DG834G and have just been using the Be Box router for ethernet and wireless connections - mainly because I haven't had time to try anything else - so it's worth me trying the Netgear then?

    I seem to be getting 8Mbit off an 8Mbit connection so I'm quite happy as it is! But "if it ain't broke don't fix it" doesn't always hold with us IT tinkerers does it...

    Re: BeThere.co.uk - Wow

    if its working fine for you just leave it. your capped at 8meg with Be Value which i presume is what you have, so there's no way your going to see an increase. your already getting an 8meg connection that is actually 8meg and not may people can say that

    sounds like it would be hassle for nothing in your case. as long as the bebox is reliable for you just keep using it

    I have tried both DG834G(v3 with latest firmware) and BeBox and from that experience it seemed BeBox always synced faster and connection was more solid and reliable.

    Re: BeThere.co.uk - Wow

    update for you all

    Be are always searching to offer the best broadband, for the best price - bringing all our members sensational value. So from 10th October all Be unlimited members will pay just £18 per month and all Be pro members will pay only £22.

    These prices will be available to all new Be members as well so there is no better time to recommend Be broadband to your friends

    Be unlimited £18 per month

    Be unlimited is one of the fastest broadband products available in the UK. Until the 10th Oct the price was £24 per month for the up to 24 Mbps downstream and up to 1.3 upstream speeds but we have now reduced it to £18 per month. Be unlimited is also a completely uncapped service so members can surf as much as they like and members also have the option of either dynamic or static IP address at no extra cost.

    Be pro £22 per month

    Be pro has come down in price from £40 a month to just £22. Designed for SME’s and power users, Be pro offers the fastest upstream and downstream speeds in the UK. Using Upload Plus Be pro members have access to up to 2.5 meg up stream using the Annex M standard.

    Reduction in the Express Cancellation Charge

    In line with these price changes we have reduce the cost of an Express Cancellation for Be unlimited and Be pro members to £40.

    When will prices come into effect?

    All new members will be able to buy Be unlimited and Be pro for the new prices from 10th October.

    All existing members will see the new pricing on their December invoice with a refund to cover the period from 10th October to 30th November.

    Members can upgrade to Be unlimited or Be pro at no costs. To upgrade login to the Member Centre and open a ticket requesting your upgrade.

    kind regards,
    Brett Coles
    Head of Member Services
    Hmm.... I may think about getting the PRO package now
