Indeed, makes me seriously want to move again.

Friend of mine has ask4 in sheffield and he gets 25mbit both ways all day everyday..does around 3TB/month with no complaints, not bad for £50/month!

Thanks for making the 100Mb Fibre rollout here look really really bad... 10Mbit up.

Never known anywhere to be able to max out 100Mb downstreams, but i know plenty of uses for 25Mb/s up.

God damn... lol.

Always welcome Druchii ;)

10mbit up is a bad ratio for 100mbit down though...

rather have the 25 symetrical in all honesty ;)

Well, that's a point i guess.

Hmm, ask4 got a website or something, seems odd they'd be able to install so easily for just one customer, unless it's an option to all the new builds or something?

Heh, cool a company that prices packages by upload speed.

Not exactly all that pricey for what's on offer either.

Yeppo :)

From what i hear they are thinking of providing 50mbit sometime in the next year, *packs his bags and buggers off to sheffield* :D

I only left Sheffield 3 years ago... lol.

Max speed i could get at my place was 7Mb on ADSL Max. Expensive though back then (I know 3 years isn't long.. blah blah).
Probably get 20 out of the ADSL2+ packages.

What would you use that upload for? Is it just to help your download on Torrents, or are there more legitimate uses for it (to the home user).
