ISPs / Internet Connections.

Archive: 7 posts


I live in the UK and I can't find one decent company, the one I have been with for years changed hands the other year and is all over the place now, fast speeds, slow speeds, dead speeds.

Just downloading the beta now and it's going slower than ever before :| Think it's done about 1% in 5mins or something :@ Seriously annoying, at this rate, by the time it's done beta will be over.

But back to the point, is it just UK which has been getting worse ISPs over the last couple years? Seems they're offering more, but in reality, giving alot less.

Sky's quite good tbh.

Tiscali used to be good, but they're so unorganised..

you want higher speeds and fibre-optic if possible. Also having your connection wired as opposed to wireless helps alot
