Sorry Mixture, maybe I just thought you were having a dig at my ignorance of broadband related issues.
either put up and shut up or fly business class elsewhere
Anyway, I'll take a look through that tome, thanks. Lesson learned:- always ask to see, and then read, the small print.
Unfortunately, I live in a village some way from the exchange and I can't see them having any new technology coming through here soon.
We still only have a weekly stagecoach, which is probably faster than our sometimes broadband speed.
