How long have you been in the queue [go on - depress me!]??

Well i had ripwave in sept and gave that back in the middle of sept, i have been waiting since then, officially the application form was accepted at the very start of October, though i put it in before then, so 4-6 weeks i have been waiting, and no sign of install, i rang them today and they said there is a backlog on installations and i just have to wait, wait, wait

gline

u mite be lucky, some people here only waited 4 weeks or less

My application was officially accepted about 2 weeks after I sent it. Guess it takes them that long to do the bank references? Also been told all I can do is wait for the backlog (after mast has been upgraded) today.... (there's another thread going for that!)

There's hope yet. Do I get time off for good behaviour??

S**t - mine took less than 24 hours. They must be getting tired of my whinging

I was installed two weeks after sending in the application, but perhaps I was ahead of the posse.

Ah thank you Blaster99. You've given me hope.

I am so sick of slow connections. Mind you, today I'm getting 41Kb which is a record. I do a fair bit of web designing and it is VERY tedious downloading images and the like that clients send me. Not to mention downloading 100Mb log files :eek:

I feel your pain

And finally.....................

After months of phonecalls, sending in contracts and general frustration, I now have the Breeze service from the Bray mast

So, in answer to my own question as to whether there is a 5Km limit - the answer is that the system definitely works up to 6.5Km and probably further.

Many thanks to you all for the advice and help.

Thanks Gline. I had a [15Mb] website to upload to the server yesterday but held off just in case my connection arrived. I'm in the process of uploading it now and the difference [from my old 30Kb] is incredible

i know , i use it occasioanlly as an ftp server so i can access my files in work and i can d/l from it in work at over 100k , its great, glad to hear it worked out for you
