It's not anywhere near 120mb though. I generally get about 15. | |

I'm guessing that's over wireless, otherwise I'd give them a call. Wireless G tops out at about 18Mb from momory, I have 120Mb Virgin and over a wire sometimes get 135Mb [Post edited 9 Mar 2014 19:42]

Yeah it is wireless to be fair. Being a bit of a dick when it come to these things, I didn't realise it made a difference! | |

If you're on;y using wireless I would suggest you are wasting a wedge on 120Mb mate | | | |

Same here, I use the cable for my laptop and regularly get over 120. I keep the wireless for everyone else. | | | |
Fibre/Superfast BB on 22:42 - Mar 9 with 4120 views | Shins | Jeez, you guy don't realize how good you have it, lol I get an absolute maximum of around 2.5MB/s which generally drops to around 0.5MB/s at peak times. We're due to get fibre here somewhere around 2050 if we're really really good. | |

I'm in the same boat as you. You can find mortgage advisors, cash flow advisors, I need a broadband advisor. No cable in my postcode. | | | | Login to get fewer ads

Get one of these to help wit the wireless side; http://goo.gl/BCbw4s 802.11ac is the newest wireless standard and it looks like it is being accepted now, all new Apple devices have ac cards in them, meaning they can potentially to 1 Gbit over the air. They are backwards compatible as well with all b/g/n devices. I would say all new laptops and smartphones over the next year will be ac compatible. Prices are now dropping for the routers as well. Other than that get a good "n" router and you should be pulling lot's more than 18Mb. | | | |

Lorr, what's your postcode. There are sites that tell you what the fastest speed you can get and then what the best deals are.. I have Talk Talk and although the customer service is dire I also get a mobile contract for 7.50 a month which is best by a country mile. | |

Cheers Jase, but one thing I'm ok with is my mobile contract. A couple of my neighbours have Talk Talk. The problem I believe,is being at the farthest reaches of the BT sub station. Or that's what I've been told anyway. | | | |
