Re: Potential move to BT Infinity...
 
Well, you can see from my sig. I have stayed with VM and upgraded my BB from 10M to 60M.

I have checked the potential speed in my area from a neighbour, they get about 22M with BT Infinity.

I know I could get that free, but I would still have to pay for telephone line rental.

The deal I got from VM was very good IMHO. £28, free local/national calls weekdays after 7PM and all weekends, caller display and 60M BB free SH.

I reckon I am paying about £10 for the privilege over what I would be paying for 'free' BT Infinity.

Also the hassle of changing was a worry for me. Even as a staff member it would have been a nightmare. Especially as I don't already have a BT land line.

I hope the 60M will be as reliable as the 10M has. So far so good.

As you know, I've got both Infinity & VM50. I keep them both so that I'm never without, but occasionally I switch to Infinity if the boy complains about games lag.

Despite the high upload speed on Infinity, I prefer the VM service for no explainable reason.

If your neighbour only gets 22 Meg on Infinity, then it's the old copper to the cabinet distance thing intertwined with the generated or inserted noise. So, on the face of things, you have made the right choice. You did with the Airport Express and Airport Extreme (like I've got)!

Hope it keeps well for you.
