    Upload is 364Kb/s i think. UTV do stick to the cap allowance, but like I said, you can get a no cap option. You'll get it free 1st 3 months.

    Home DSL comes in the form of:
    1M/128k
    2M/256k
    3M/384k

    Do some research on BT as its cheaper than UTV...ther is a risk of getting bad bills(of which I never had any)....but it appears to be a problem none the less.

    How much are you willing to spend anyway and is there a wireless provider in your area as they can easily provide faster uploads than DSL.

    Before you choose BT please look very carefully at some of the BT threads in this forum. Also look here

    You might be lucky and have no problems with BT whatsoever, but be careful and learn from the experiences of others.
