I've just signed up to 100meg broadband!

[Johnny Mac]

When I was with BT it was around 4meg. It was fine up until a
Month ago. I had BT vision too which is pretty good.

This virgin package has HD TV. It's supposed to be going to 300meg next year too. I think with speeds like this the net is going to turn a corner with what it's capable of doing.

I'm looking forward to using useneXt with this new high speed.

You may even max out on usenext i think there servers only go up to 50mb
but still that will be awesome

I assume you people are talking about Mbits not MB as in Megabytes?

[Johnny Mac]

Yes 50 meg dowloading is insane speeds. I can get 15 gig a month but i can see that running out before the months out.

Yes its in megabits not megabytes but give it a few years, you never know!

Our BT internet is completely buggered. No phone line either so we phoned them to sort it out and apparently it takes a week to sort it out so we're now going with Virgin on wednesday for 20 mbs. Thank god.

I get 100 meg at uni, Downloaded AoE III in under 10 minutes (Around 3gb file).
Otherwise though, it isn't amazing. Unless I decide to browse the guardian reallyreallyfast.

[Johnny Mac]

3gig in under ten minutes sounds very impressive

[Stevepage]

Well we finally got virgin now. Getting a constant 19.5 meg as to the 0.5 meg I was getting with BT  :lol:  I can finally play my PS3 games online with out needing to tell every one to not use their laptops for a bit and I can finally use the BBc Iplayer  :D

[ToneMonkey]

When I looked at switching, other providers were telling me that I had a charge to pay for living next to the BT Phone exchange.  £8 a month or something stupid like that.

Think yourself's lucky in hull we have karoo or karoo I'm lucky one in a reasonably fast part getting about 14

not many reasons to think yourself as lucky if you're in hull.


i was looking at getting a virgin package for my new flat. probably wouldn't go with 100meg.
I asked some crazy pop up person about what speed was the average, and i got a copy and paste answer telling me that virgin uses "unique" fibre optic cables that guarantees bandwidth... I told her i'd heard of those fibre doo daars.

I don't understand why it costs LESS to get TV+Phone+Broadband than it does to get only TV+Broadband.

A lot of the time it's MW2 just because it's quick to set up and shoot people for a game or too. I was playing Fallout 3 untill my brother overwrote everything  :x

Fallout New Vegas and Blacks Ops will be next.

Quite liking the other channels, I got to catch up with Frankie Boyles new show and other things.
