Thanks - this is much better than the other network stumbers I have used.

As for it being nearly 2010 - my point is... a maximum speed for a wired connection in this day and age is meaningless - and yes, I accept that there will be some drop in speed - but today's consumers work wirelessly.... I use wired connections where possible, but what about the netbook, the wii, the media streamer? They have to work wirelessly, and right now, they're acting as doorstops because they don't work.

And the reason they don't work is that I am not being offered the equipment I need to make it work in my premises. And as far as I am concerned, that means I am not being offered the service I am paying for. QED.
