To cut a long story short, despite being on a 50 gig cap with Nildram on there 8mb line they've decided to throttle all newsgroup access to less than 100k\sec.
I was hoping to switch to Be There but they've been changing the date that my exchange will be supported so that its now slipped into next year. The things that impressed me were the price and speeds (upto 24 down\1.3 up).
My second choice would be UK Online (22 down\0.5 up) however you can't order the service unless you buy there poxy router (regardless of if you already have it or not). Its a netgear DG834GT and they want me to pay 80 quid for it (i'd rather spend a little more and buy a 200mbit MIMO variant but hey ho).
My question is, do Easynet (who own UKOnline) have any other isp's?
Edit: No worries, i phoned them up and explained that i already had the router and they've agreed to not charge me for it.
