Title: About to pull into the fast lane...
Post by: Heat on January 26, 2003, 02:17:34 PM: ... I\'m going to get Broadband installed sometime this week or maybe next week, I can\'t really afford it but the crap I\'ve gone through latley with dial up ISP\'s has made up my mind. I\'ll be going for the 512k BT ADSL at £27 a month.

If anyone has this service please give your thoughts on there speeds and average download speeds.

PS: It\'s my birthday today, anyone get me anything :D

You\'re in for a rude awakening.

Less lag is more appropriate wording.

Post by: Heat on January 29, 2003, 08:54:03 AM: I hardly lag when I play on 56k, so it will feel like no lag.
