Ok, i have bought it, and i reckon i am getting on avergae an extra .5k download. Is it worth buying, well not really sure. Seems to be a bit faster. But i will keep you updated

The thing is I find that it's rarely your modem playing up when downloads go slow, it's more to do with server usage, network availability and the hardware along the line. It's true to say that if there is a busy router somewhere then that is going to slow down your download across the system. A good example of this is that downloads from America often go more quickly than from ones in London. Sutff from London zips about in the City's router sytem for ages before getting to you where as from America your signal goes pretty much straight to Holland then through a super fast satellite link to the US, where they have pretty good Internet capabilities. Especially bearing in mind that the phone system in the UK isn't particualarly good and this gold line actually be better than the BT lines anyway.

Well it is faster, that is all i care about. And anyway when most servers can pump out an average download of 60k/s , a 56k user should always get fast speeds. Been getting 5.1k average download speed now

Fork out for BT Openworld, it's a cool service, it never goes down (only about 4 times in 8 months, and 10 mins @ a time then) and u get uncapped download speeds, sometimes upto 150kbp/s can be spread over audiogalaxy @ ne1 given time, and for 30 quid a month now, it's well worth the money, u think its twice as much as some 56k services but 10 times as fast

i got it. I can see no change in download speed so i think i mite take it back

i have that line in the house... its not much difference you get like 1.0K more on your downloads. you can save your pocket a tenner and just buy something because its pretty useless.
