Hello People

I too have ordered uko 22mb ADSL2+ connection

I am a previos cutomer of UKO currently subscribed to there 8mb. I have a had a few hiccups since may but once its UP its UP no fart arsing around like ntl & by etc. Once your live and activated and sync is set its an excellant service speeds are good too.

I also had to change my BT number because of them STUPID annoying Sales calls from india telling me I have won a free phone!!. It's all a con no free phone but getting back to the UKO I had to close old account and reprovision my line from scratch pointless I know as all BT have done is simply just created a new calling card and not actually physically modified the line or service so the adsl trigger is still set on my old home number @ the exchange and all they have to do is just patch in the new number at the exchange end, Its a doddle.

What wound me up a bit was the LAME MONEY SCAMMING CHEATING KNIVING requirements !!

I allready have my LinkSys ADSL 2+ router its not wireless but why do I need wireless if its connected to my hub for my other box's. I was freindly advised by uko to purchase an ADSL2+ compatible router as I would not have the need to go out and buy another router so I did just that and ordered a Linksys ADSL2+ Router model: AG241 It dont work well on standard adsl something to do with modulation modes g.lite, g.dmt, ansi. t1413 etc. so basicly looks like I wasted another 60 odd quid back in may 05.

In the end the LinkSys would not work well on the 8mb ADSL provided by uko and same as bulldog too would not work correctly, But works fine on normal adsl under 2mb ie: aol, wanado, bt, etc..

Why should we sit back and be mugged off by uko ?

I heard the common saying "The customer is always right" I do hope these cowboy ISP take note of the real input, Its Customers!!

Well lets hope all go's well and I dont have any hiccups and lets see if they can do it under the 14 days. Should be fun

Best Regards

Adam
