Apparently there mobile phones in Japan with > 2mbit/sec access since 2001!
Makes our 3G offerings seem rather pathetic !
They're already looking at 4G ... speeds >20mbit/sec.

C-H, 1Gbps is almost fast enough for {tedious but still feasible} human teleportation. {And people think VoIP and movie transfers are tempting fate.}

Mine, right now, is 733 down, 511 up.
I have had as fast as 1024 up, and a bit faster than 512 down (maybe 700 ish).
I don't have DSL technically, but a telco broadband technology called Etherloop.

Not yet Alan, no. We have had problems with the last leg of the line to our property again ![[Linked Image]](https://www.electrical-contractor.net/ubb/frown.gif) Also, I haven't managed to make my mind up who to go for yet! Looking at one-tel at the moment...
If hindsight were foresight, we'd all be millionaires!

John, don't know if you've got your broadband yet but one worth looking at is www.adsl4less.com they do have a set up cost but the monthly sub is only slightly more than the better Dial Up services. Plus unlike a lot of the highly advertised companies they use IP stream the same as BT and not Data Stream which still seems somewhat prone to contention issues.

I'm on e7even £15/month 512k unlimited. Been fine so far (4 months). BT had to replace the local armoured cables as they weren't thick enough guage for ADSL, being 4km+ from the exchange, and others are still further down the line.
