    Renting is not an issue. Lots of people rent and pay.

    And even if UPC had any restrictions like this, you can just ask the landlord to get it installed and you pay him/her the monthly cost.

    I rent and signed up to UPC no bother. They just ask for proof of your lease, either a letter from the letting agent or a copy of the fron page of your tenant agreement.

    Have the 30mb package. It is great. Great downlaod speeds and plenty of bandwidth to handle numerous devices at the same time.

    If you're oing wireless mainly then the 15Mb is probably best. I have the 30 and wireless G routers (what UPC and most laptops use) will only put through between 20-23Mbps. So 7Mb are wasted over wireless G.
