Guess he is like many TENS OF THOUSANDS of us.. cannot get ADSL.... probably NEVER WILL Well, there may be someone who could assist : the A-Team. Or, you could try www.langreen.com Although we are not a rural area, they agreed to install wireless BB into our village. They usually ask for 15 orders. Then you get 512kb/s up and down. Two year contract and the setup is about £60. Monthly fee is not stupid like some of the others that I have seen and there's no slow dial-up to worry about. Check all the facts and I've not used it myself so please don't take this as a recommendation from me, just a pointer in the right direction ;-) Others may be able to comment from experience.

The words cheap, reliable, and satellite are not often found together. Target price when I looked about three months ago was GBP70/EUR100 +VAT. Hughes Direcway's resellers should be able to get to this price if you squeeze them politely, but DW's cap may be an issue for you - it hasn't been for me. Download speeds vary hugely - as poor as 100kbps during busy times, up to 1500kbps when it's quiet. Upload is c**p all the time (25 - 65kbps). This is my experience with DW's Bronze service, I imagine if you pay more for the next service level it'll be better. If you have/can get ISDN, use that for the uplink. www.satspeed.de and www.bridgebroadband.co.uk might be a good starting point. Both have helpful people. And I've just checked and Bridge's site is down ![]() -- All the best David Millen Xativa, Valencia please reply in group if you have to email me, remove the obvious: |
