Networks 8Mb Broadband Available in the UK at £29.99, capped at 500GB!

UKonline specify the router that you have because they need to be able to read info from the router about your line and not all routers allow them to do this so they simplify it and make sure all their customers have a router that gives them this info. As for the 8 mb, BT plan to have MaxDSL fully implemented by around September. A lot of people wont be able get 8mb though, it will be the maximum that your line can support. Trust me, it will happen. If not by September then by early next year.

EDIT: It appears that you don't need to use the router they supply, but they reccomend that you do.

But Wormage, where would you store all the internet? It's gotta go somewhere...

Well looking at the exchange list i should be able to get it when i move to my new flat, the only consern i have is this router that there offering. If only they provided some information about or even a picture and then i could do the rest

One can but hope

 

It's an Actiontec wifi router, one port i think...

I'm signing up tmrw and going to migrate to them from my current provider, my friend is 'recommending' me so i'm getting a month free

If anyone else wants a free month, just pm me and i'll let you know the details once i get mine set up.

Oh and i plan on selling the router to recoup the 50quid connection charge

 

i'm in ipswich and its not on the list but i'm trying to get a move back to sheffield so when i do guess who plans on signing up

 

It says Rotherham is enabled and Im just outside Rotherham but cant get it So near!

 

I'll be signing up to this shortly

Oh and BT will only be 768k upload for business users (i.e. 20:1) last I checked, I forget what home users will be getting....

 

Anyone wanna free month

very decent package and my upload will go up to 55Kb :] I did have abit of trouble at start but ukonline's support was quite good

 

Most here in Hull is 3mbps

 

I once pulled something like 35 GB down over a 2Mbs line in about 36 hours.

Be sure to plan for your future bandwith needs, and how big you expect the hard drives in your next box to be.

 

How is that possible, I 've just worked out that you can only download about 30GB over a 2meg connection! At a constant rate, 30 is possible.

Just found that my school is having 8meg bb this october, I'll be leaving next month though, I've been stuck with 56Kk for 2 bloody years here! At least I have uni speeds to look forwards to!

 

how homosexual is that

im am seriously considering going with them... but i have been thinking of making a webserver

 

Use dyndns or something to point to a diff port? Say 81 or 69 or something

Oh and i'm now on UKO 8 meg, getting ~820-840 down and 50ish up....

Can you say 2.8 gig an hour? Usenet has never been so much fun... for reading news of course

Edit: oh and my offer still stands for a free month, pm me if you are interested and i'll give you my email address to slap in at signup.

 

we might be changing to the 2mb connection if virgin doesn't get it's act together... they say we can have a free 1mb connection upgrade... the thing is when you try to request it they say try again later since lot's of people are choosing to upgrade for free
i don't know anyone who would want to stay with a slower connection, especially as the bandwidth allowance is the same...
