ADSL help?

I moving end of month and want new connection.

thinking of upping to a 1MB line, but Nildram's one for �40 limits you to 150G a month dls.

Any other good ones for 40 or under that dont limit you?

cheers

i think freedom 2 surf has 1mbit for 30 pounds
i have the 2mbit nildram and in 16 days now i have d/l 91gb so i guess with 1 mbit u are allright

mmm... I guess you guys are right, I was just worried coz I'll be splitting the line with 2 other ppl, so 3 ppl could do 150G in a month i reckon.

I'll talk to them about it, coz I really wanna go with Nildram

Cheers for the advice

try going with something smaller that doesnt limit you. you may have a big connection, but doesnt mean you'll do the best possible speeds. 600 is fine for me, i download what i want and i think 70k is a good download speed. anything more is excessive

Goto: www.adslguide.org.uk they have isp reviews, speed tests, reliability issues etc. From what I gather from the site Plusnet seem to be the dogs balearics!!

I got a 1Mbit line with NTL, �35 a month. I got a student contract so I got the first month free, and the �25 deposit I paid when I signed up went towards the first bill, so I only pay a tenner for the second month. Great stuff, highly recommmend.

i'm finally getting broadband.

Blueyonder Cable 512k, about bloody time i think!

Could have got 2Mbit, but quite expensive at 50 quid a month
