    No problem dan.

    In most instances I hear about sky there service is one of the best.

    I pay a lot of money to bt for my service being about £22 a month if i recall.

    But i am happy with it.

    If i wanted a cheaper version sky would be the next one i would go to.

    I have here this type


    But the real download speed always depends on from where you downloading exactly, this is the speed of the connection only to the server... nothing else
    If the server is too far and/or on badly routes the download could be even just 1-2kilobytes per second with this connection too


    Some weeks ago my mate told me, his download was extrem fast for a 5-6 hour period, IMHO our ISP made some tests or developments, and speed was not limited until this times, but he has GigabitLAN port is his notebook :P

    hi guys

    our Digi ISP has a new package from july 15 (optical network)
    1000/100Mbps internet access (with unlimited traffic), for ~13GBP per month , with 95 TV channels and VOIP phone for ~20GBP per month (+traffic for outgoing calls, but in Digi's own network is fully free, even for an aboard call, example a call to Romania from Hungary if both number is in Digi's network costs zero)
    my current 80/25Mbps access is uprated to 200/50 for free... so sadly i need to upgrade my TPlink741 router for a better one, it has "only" 100Mbps ports LOL
    the slowest access is now 50/25Mbps (unlimited) for only ~8GBP per month

    this 1000Megabits (1Gigabits) per second means an Xvid/Divx avi file can be downloaded in 6(six!!) seconds, or a 4.7Gb DVD in only 37seconds... OK it depending too from where comes the file, its ideal for a hardcore torrent user
    this speed means 120-125Megabytes per second, this is around the HDDs write speed limit on SATA3... or you need to have an SSD

    really dont know, why is by you guys this type of internet access not available even nowdays...

    OK, this 1Gbps is really hardcore overkill for internet surfing, but it is very cheap even here too

    my further 512kbps ADSL access 7-8 years ago was 3x more expensive as this whit the cableTV and VOIP phone now (and calculate the yearly inflation too), later this ADSL was upgraded for to 1536 and 3072kbps for free, but was expensive, and frequently lost the connection, needed to change the ADSL modem 2 times but even was not stable
    then it was 45GBP for the ADSL only and 8GBP for the phone line (required for ADSL, +calls traffic) , and 16GBP for the 49 channel cableTV... sum 79GBP per month (+phone calls traffic costs)

    this now costs the 1/4 only, 60x faster, and stable(!)...
    ping to the BIX is just 2ms :P
