Nothing to do with GBPVR but...

[bgowland]

Actuall NTL etc are really crap, i pay £70 per month fro 2Mb totally unrestricted TCP connection (no restrictiosn on ANY ports and no caps).

Huh? I hope that's 2Mbs in both directions. I only have a 256Kbs upload but I get 2Mbs download for £25/month with no caps or port restrictions. It's a 50:1 contention ratio but as I spend most of my time online late at night that doesn;t affect me.

Cheers,
Brian

Ouch, ISP caps suck, Here in the US i get 9mbps download and 1 mbps upload uncapped for 50 bucks a month, which is still nothing compared to Japan, where you can get 100mbps download for like 15 bucks a month.

ejeffers,

What service are you using in the US with that kind of throughput for $50/month? I don't think that's typical in a US market.

However, I dont think these speeds are available in all areas.

But yeah, I know, they recently upgraded and I was amazed at the icrease in speed, and I figured that it wasnt typical.
