Broadband connections

Post by Holger Danske »

Just wondering.
What internet-connection do you have???
Danish and norweign militaryforums with much less members have much more traffic than this forum.
I pay 30 punds a month for a 8 MB connection-download/2 MB upload.

At home it's £11.95 for a half meg download with a 3 Gb per month limit. I could get 8mb download for the same price but we live a fair distance from the telephone exchange (about 5km). Must have something to do with the cables going uphill - not a problem in you neck of the woods I'd guess :wink:

Before you insult someone, first walk a mile in their shoes, that way when you insult them, you are a mile away and you have their shoes.

Thats quite good E5, I was told mine would be upgraded to 16mb some time in the future, but that was months ok and all reference to it on the website has vanished. Who are you with, Bulldog?
