Don't worry mate, it's better to keep up 1 thread, then to have millions, later

Moriarty is a good guy, he will keep it up

You won't get 2mbps. You'll probably get about 1.8mbps. Should be around 220-240.. It really depends.

Your current bandwidth reading is:
2.36 Mbps
which means you can download at 301.75 KB/sec. from our servers.

What BB package is it and how much?!? :eek:

halenger

That'd be the "refresh button" BB package. (Refresh doesn't work cause the files are in your cache. You need to hit retest)

Well as NTL are selling off their Irish assets...I wouldnt hold your breath for a 3mbit connection.

If you were going to get the 3mbit connection anytime soon....wouldnt you think it would have been passed onto Dublin as NTL operate a single network with the UK???

Also who says the new owners will want to push the broadband service like NTL did.
Besides the competition in the Irish BB market is a joke compared to the UK...and it was due to pressure from Telewest that pushed NTL to increase their UK speeds anyway!
