267642 2004-08-31 23:24:00 Hi Folks,

I saw a flyer recently offering free broadband without the need for ADSL routers or indeed altering your computer system in any way, even if you're using a 9600 modem.

So I went to the URL (www.juiceboosted.co.nz) and had a look.

They are offering "free broadband for ever" to 80 million internet users (!) from October. This sounds too good to be true, so I'm naturally suspicious. Does anyone know anything about it?

267647 2004-09-01 00:23:00 Remember when I4Free offered free dialup? They're not around anymore are they? There is no such thing as a free lunch without a catch. I'd steer well clear of it. Sb0h (3744)
