You really, really didnt want to do that Trem.

I know where you stay.
I know when you go out.
I know when you are alone and vulnerable.
I WILL have my revenge. Cold!

The postcode checker on the BT broadband site now says 'try again after 6 September' if your postcode currently can't get bb.

TRY IT THEN WILIER OH MY GOD!

Tried it......
For the postcode:

The checker indicates that ADSL Broadband is available in your area and although the preliminary check on your postcode suggests that the full range of ADSL Broadband services cannot be delivered to your address because of the long distance between you and the local telephone exchange, you may be able to receive Broadband service at 512kilobits per second downstream and up to 256kilobits per second upstream. (The upstream speed will vary depending on the length of the telephone line connecting you to your local exchange).

which is encouraging, BUT the phone checker says this:

Your exchange has ADSL broadband. However, the length of the telephone line between you and the exchange is too long for ADSL broadband. However, we are continuing to look for alternative technology solutions and will keep this site updated with developments as they happen.

Thank you for your interest.

Which has been the same since they enabled the exchange in January.

I remember the good ole days when ISDN = "OMG LPB lamer, I want ISDN so bad nghh. I'd beat you if you were on a modem!" and I hate 2mb dsl. I felt so speshul :\

I actually DONT miss those days. I couldnt comprehend how I was beaten so easily by LPB's at quake 2, until I got ISDN. Then I understood, and sometimes actually felt bad about playing with the 200+ ping brigade, as it was no challenge at all.

Oops, did I type hate? I meant had :\

Well, it seems that things have progressed very slightly.

Our initial test on your line indicates that you may be able to have an ADSL broadband service that provides 512Kbps or 256Kbps download speed. However, due to the length of your line, an engineer visit may be required, who will, where possible, supply the broadband service.

Need to place an order to get an engineer to do his thang.......

 

[Mazling]

Very kind of the engineer to come and check out your line, and to see if he can supply you his broadband.
