Hi Jim,
Personally, I'll never go with Wanadoo again. After paying 22 pounds per
month for the larger 2 gig download rate, and 19 pounds per month for
what
I supposed was going to be 2 MB kbps of download speed, I found my
connection really very slow. On checking I found that my download speed
was
more like 750 kbps per sec. I called Wanadoo and was told that BT in my
area
did not have the infrastructure to enable my 2 mb kbps rate. Fine, I
suggested, that's understandable, so what about some kind of rebate on my
19
pounds per month? After all, I agreed to pay for 2 mb kbps, which I'm not
getting, albeit due to BT and the lack of modern infrastructure, but could
we not come to some kind of agreement? . Tough, says wanadoo, you read
the
small print when you signed up, so ... too bad.

Hi List,
I'm about to bite the bullet and go for a broadband connection. I am
currently with wanadoo and will probably stay with them. However, what
are
the do's and dont's re broadband, what pitfalls might I encounter, all
contributions welcome.
Many thanks in advance.
