I live in the sticks. ADSL ftl

You know, your speed isn't what's bothering me here.

It's the "slower then 79% of GB....

I mean, are the 21% using 14.4 modems or something? :)

But that one sucked for me, so i used a better one.

Can't blame me that everyone else follow suit right? ;)

Well one would suspect that the vast majority of that 20% is made up of people who, like my parents for instance, want the internet to check e-mails and maybe read the BBC news in the morning and little more. I think you can get 1mb ADSL for something like £5 per month - why pay for more if you don't need it?

Similarly to Raven, I currently live in the sticks and went from 50mb cable at my old house to 5mb ADSL at my new house. It sucks.

In the Netherlands you can get up to 250Mb for private use. That will include television and phone for "just" around €110 a month. Think that's the max atm.

yup, the only place you'd find speeds like this for residential use is probably Switzerland or Korea (South Korea have insane internet apparently)

yes it is a lie that you have a penis at all - as you claimed you had one so therefore pics or it never happened!


(not that I want to see these pictures but you dropped yourself in this mess!) :p

Who knows, maybe i don't :p

Then again, technically only thing that didn't happen is a small penis, while other penis sizes haven't been claimed and as such,require no pictorial evidence ;)

Just upgraded my BT Infinity to 80mb for no extra cost, all i had to do was renew my contract for a further year.

As ive been with BT for over 10yrs anyway, not a problem

I got a letter from BT once where they said I had downloaded too much (100 gig in a month) so they were halving my bandwidth for a month.

I told them to shove it up their arse.

Everyone was getting moved from 40/10 to 80/20 anyway, you could have gone anywhere reselling FTTC and got the same.
