Hi Ray,
Not impressive? See my previous message. My sister is on a 20MB download
speed, and gets about 15 MB out of that with Broadband tests. I am on 10MB,
as businesses are always behind with VM, and I regularly get 9 MB. Because
I am over a mile from my exchange, I would only get 2MB max with DSL.
All the best
Steve

Yes indeed Billy. I get loads of stuff through the door now exstolling the
virtues of a Virgin opical connection. Thing is, the speeds on offer don't
seem that impressive at the moment, though they make much of the fact the
distance from the exchange doesn't matter.
Cheers,
From Ray
