I pay £30 for a measly 3GB with O2, but I got a free laptop so I'm not going to moan much. 3 do 15GB for £20. I just checked the main sites (O2, Orange, T-Mobile etc) and none have unlimited, or as far as I could see. You could get an iPhone or Blackberry with unlimited data and wifi, but they always have fair usage policies so I am unsure if even that will work. Virgin Media cable?

When I was with them they never actually published any times, or even what they throttle and what they don't. Check their website to see if that's changed.

Sounds like it's a problem with your PC then. BT don't block WLM. Have you ran the troubleshooter built into WLM?

which Intel processor is that?
My laptop also does this on long video's, and HD is a no go for me (not fluid). I put this down to slow CPU, not enough RAM, and not enough hard disc space (this old laptop is nearly full up!)
Broadband speed is always over 6Mb.
One thing I do, is load the video page and press Pause right away. This stops playback - and lets the PC ...

For peace of mind, it is better to leave the router's firewall alone.

I had X-stream. It was a nightmare trying to connect because they only allowed a limited number of connections.
I then moved to NTL which offered free dial up via their phone lines.

When you buy it the first 1GB of usage is included in the price. You then just buy £15 topup vouchers when you need to - it has to be £15 it doesn't accept other amounts as this is the price of 1GB. It really is a very simple service as you say. Remember to check your coverage by typing your post code in on their website.

Ring them up, complain...Give them the chance to sort it.
I use O2 and they seem to be pretty helpful.

It is likely those of us in rural or semi-rural areas will always lag behind the towns and cities. It's definitely down to costs here in the UK because our government still expects the broadband companies to pick up most of the costs. In other countries governments pay for the upgrades in infrastructure (like S Korea) but here that isn't the case.
The UK government are ...

It may be as simple as Contention plus one of your dwellings being closer to the exchange than the other and thus having a greater speed to start with.
There's a lot of paranoia on these forums.

The change in results on Samknows simply means that BT have updated their predictions for what is possible in your local area .
Basically there are one of two things going on. Either your connection to your local exchange is connecting at a slower speed, or your download speed from AOL is slower then it should be.
I would have a chat with AOL - see what they say, or ...
