Net speed problems

[kamulko]

I don't know in UK, but in Italy the DSL prices are different second the Guaranteed Band. I try to explain (sorry for my bad english): maybe I buy a high speed DSL and I surf slow. It depends from the amount of traffic and also if I have payed or not for the minimum granted band. Here can have the paradox, 'cause it is possible that I surf at less speed than one user who have a theorical "slow" (and less expensive) DSL max value... but with a large granted band. Maybe this is your case?

I have a friend in the Highlands of Scotland and he is on broadband. I on the other hand live in the heart of England, a small village in Oxfordshire and can't get it, go figure, BT sucks.

Even though the exchange is broadband enabled, there is 9Km of copper cable between me and the exchange, unless BT put in another exchange nearer (very unlikely) or the distance that you can get it needs to jump beyond the 5KM current limit.

Not good!

Can u access sat net?

I think i may have solved the problem i turned the intelligent scanner off and it's right back up there at 2.2Mbps!

I wonder what it is about that bit of the program that slows the net so much?

Any ideas?

I have no idea why it was having no effect before.....very strange...probably a combo of diffrent factors i think!

Well thankyou anyway mates
