    I guess you're with opensore, Herbs?

    I've had no problem with PIPEX DSL.

    Yep btopenwound was the cheapest when I got it, but not anymore. I may move to nthell but I think they are as bad as one another, having used both before.

    Can't get ADSL at home - If you use BT's broadband checker there are only 6 people on my exchange registered for ADSL and one of them is ME! Maybe I should start a "Get <my village> Broadband" campaign.

    Have it at work with BTOpenwound - big mistake, stuck for 12 months with them now. As soon as the time is up I'm changing ISP.
