"sobs" BT won't let me have broadband "sobs"

[loki]

How about talking to the people in your street and see if any of them would be willing to share a connection and split the fees if you aren't looking to torrent the life out of the connection.

Is it not possible to see if an LLU operator who also offers a phone line has capacity on their equipment?

Tbh honest if people are too dumb to even put a simple password on it then they deserve everything they get.

That excuse won't hold up in court


Claiming that it was an accident, however, is much more feasable..

also that you thought it was for public community use, as there were no warnings, and no sign of any type to restrict access.

roll on 31st of march

hmm i wonder if the nice ppl at IDNet will put me on a max package?? especially since ive had to wait

I'm sure they would. IDNET are awesome

yeah my short experience of them has been good so far

my router came today from broadbandbuyer which was really quick considering citylink was invovled lol

guess ive just gotta be patient and keep my fingers crossed

To be honest... its an ATM connection from the PoP (point of presence) if thats what is oversubscribed you shouldnt be in for too much of a wait, however if the DSLAM is full they may wait for demand to increase before installing it. I would imagine upgrades will be held off as long as possible due to 21CN roll out.

well good news folks ive recieved an email from idnet and my bb will be enabled on monday as bt have now sorted whatever the problem was at the exchange

also they have told me to get in touch after the 31st to see what they can do about regrading for a higher speed
