Does anyone have the speed they advertise?

Johnny Bitte · 2009-04-14 14:30:37

Hi All, Just wanted to ask if anyone who use's a midband provider actually get the speed they advertise. I know all about up to 3 point what ever but does anyone actually get it from their provider? I ve gone through O2 Ripwave and digiweb so far and not one could reach anywhere near what they have said. I am in Swords…
