    Your upload speed is 0.1 Mb/s higher than my off peak download speed.

    I hope your master socket explodes

    "Thats hot", only tried some distro's on torrents atm, pulling a solid 5.9mb/s though. Although check this out..

    3 o clock ish or whenever i started this post it had just been installed.

    8pm..some indian bloke turned it off at virgin, said i owed them £70 before they turned it back on !

    I owe them the difference it was from 20-50mb, which is like 17quid.

    £30 installation fee? All he did was plug in the new modem (which looks nice) and make a phone call, left me with the dlink N router to set up as i have ports to forward etc and he didnt seem clued up AT all.

    £20 connection fee ? Wait a minute..ive been with virgin on 20mb for nearly a year, and hes just charged me £30 to set it up ?

    How id crave for that upload bandwith.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Well he posted that at 16:30 so not far off that time My friends 50mb is pretty solid 24hr/s - and also no thottling on 50mb.

    50mb is available here and is tempting but think ill hold off until prices come down (new package deal etc)

    Re: 50mb live today.

    I'll be upgrading to 50mb come sept 1st & the price drop but as has been mentioned the installation & connection fees are ridiculous. I can self install everything myself thank very much and the connection fee is a rip off.

    That's great for you that, it really is. But once you've gone over you 50mb download limit, have fun surfing at 0.5kb/s VM are known for the terrible traffic shaping policy, and restricting download limits.

    Soon even surfing Hexus will be hell
