I have been on ntl broad band for about a year and a half now and have
found it to be quite good some down time as there is in all networks =
but I
find it good enough for what I need it for email and internet for FTP =
and
Skype and msn and it is not over priced mind you if they want to bring =
the
price down then I will not complain about it hahahah=20
For email use hugh.megarry@xxxxxxxxxxxx=20
For M S N use hughmegarry@xxxxxxxxxxx
For Skype use hugh.megarry

well, my only advice is steer well clear of NTL.
they may be one of the cheapest, with a 1.5MBPS service only costing =
around
=A335/=A336 per month, and you don't need to mess around with your =
existing
phone line, but since I started using them I have had a lot of problems,
some of which have been, quite a few total losses of service, quite a =
lot of
very slow internet browsing, e-mails vanishing, e-mails being returned =
for
no reason, e-mails cloning themselves so that multiple copies of them =
arrive
at the destination e-mail address, and incoming e-mails not getting to =
me or
being returned, even though the sender is using the correct address for =
me.
to add to that, you can't send or receive e-mails larger than 10MB, and
there upload rate is at most a quarter of the download one, which is
something they don't think they need to tell you. there tech support =
isn't
up to much either, and if you want to use a router to have more than one
machine on the service, they just don't want to know, and won't give you =
any
help what so ever.
