Re: From NTL to ADSL - advice please...

WOW!


Dead easy to set up, everything working, but the thing I'm truly amazed about is just the sheer browsing speed!!!

I now realise just how slow my browsing was under NTL!!

Looking at pings and traceroutes it would seem that PlusNet just have some damn good connectivity, and that combined with no transparent proxy and the no crap pings like I was getting before (i.e. between me and UBR), just seems to make a heck of a difference!!

Sites that used to crawl along taking 5 seconds or more to load a page in some cases just load instantly now.

I've not even tried out downloads at 2mbps yet, I'm just impressed by the simple flow of internet packets actually being fast for once!!

This was definitely the right decision
