500290 2006-11-19 20:43:00 Still on Adventure. Was thinking of changing to Go Large when they announce the new plans but am glad I held off!

Am looking for a provider for when I move into my new house in a month.

Any suggestions?

500292 2006-11-22 05:31:00 Well I get 2.6mb speeds, sufficient enough for me, far better than the dial up speeds ive been getting over the last few weeks.

I make up for my slower speeds by being a bandwidth hog, 25 gigs so far, and my month ends on the 6th of Dec. (And thats with slow speeds)

500293 2006-11-23 04:22:00 on go large..id say my speeds are AVG now..rather than slow or fast...mind you i didnt pay a cent 4 this months net :) *refund* turning_point (9507)
500294 2006-11-23 22:54:00 With Xtra Go Large here....however, I am getting a randomized speed, mostly using P2P. Ranges from 5kBps-102kBps. 102kBps is pretty rare, though. Still manage to suck in 50GB a month lol.

haha, nice one buddy. :p

Go Large is only good if you decide to leave your PC on downloading for basically 15/7. That's what my brother does, leave it on overnight, and leave it on during the day, unless I intervene sometimes.

Well, I get a widely varied speeds using P2P . . . . most of the time, however, I get between 5-25kBps about 60% of the time . Yes, the speed fluctuates . Sometimes it may stay steady between 10-20kBps .

30% of the time, I'll be stuck at between 5-12kBps . The remaining 10% is when I get between 40-102kBps . Very rare will I get anything above 60kBps though .

BTW, I should be able to get up to 320kBps . My record breaker!
