Orange 'free' broadband..

I was wondering if anyone could shed some light onto the facts around Orange free BB..
As far as i can tell, they're offering 2MB with 2GB/month DL limit to customers which have a £30/month or more contract. and u get a free wireless router.
here is where it gets a little misty..
do u need a BT land line, orr, do u need to subscribe to 'their own' phone service (if they have one..)
also, hows the 2GB policed?
set up costs? ..anything else? or is it new customers only..? ..

Re: Orange 'free' broadband..

you need a bt landline as it is ADSL - it's also LLU adsl formerly known as wanadoo so I'd personally go for the sky broadband which is easynet LLU

Re: Orange 'free' broadband..

Its 8mbit connection also, not 2
thing is the free router is a "Live box" which is like that bt thing, but its a big white box that flashes. pretty sure its USB also. My GF works for orange, 2gb policy is inforced she thinks and its availible to current customers but youll have to upgrade to an 18 month contract and have a tariff which is £30+ a month. An etccarmageddon's right about the BT phone line.
