Thanks I never really thought about it like that I actually thought the cable VM used was the same as any other.

As it happens I was using 50m of ethernet cable no problem, didn't actually need that much I think 25/30m would have been enough. anyway got sick of the cable running downstairs and went to use the netgear dongle supplied by VM.

I get around 2/3 bars out of 5 for signal so thought it may have been better to have the modem moved downstairs. in the hope of a better signal and the fact the pc is now down here.

Think I may just leave it as is then not that bothered at the moment to fork out £99
