I hate my ISP, cause I'm in Aberdeen Scotland, and they're in Manchester Sad

I get around 0.5 -- 2 GB/Day.

And my connections is like 8 Meg Crying or Very sad

Its got nothing to do with the distance between your town and the ISP's base Wink

Its a little more in-depth than that.

You're slow speeds could be factored by a number of issues, such as line length from your telephone exchange, line quality, EM interference (either in the house...or more likely around you're area), old-style BT ring-wiring in your home can cause a sort of interference by picking up stuff from around the house, having a crap ISP full-top etc... Wink

Most cases of slow speed are caused by the first 2, and there is nothing you can do about that, unless you move house, bundle multiple broadband lines together (not an option for home users) or switch to cable (if you area has it) or satellite broadband..which is nice cause you can get it anywhere...buts its expensive and the latency is huuuuge, between half a second to a second. So you aint playing games or streaming audio/video and such Razz

Yup. my ISP is like the worst in the UK.

And I have 40GB DL limit, which is bullshit.
(Ok so I don't dl that much but meh. Razz

)

Mine is 30GB for peak period (8am - 10pm weekdays) and 300GB offpeak (from 10pm friday through to 8am the following monday).

I can't say I ever need more...do it all off-peak... mind you, so do all the other users too, lol, and it can become quite slow...sometimes sub-2meg Razz

What is your ISP anyway?

Mines the bullshit TalkTalk.

Hehe talktalk, virgin, tiscali and BT are going down the pan at a phenomenal rate....and funnily enough its though exact ISP's that have been haveing talks about these revolutionary new advertising methods, to track users habits and find the best way to force adds on ya....hmm...

I'm with UKFSN...and just like ADSL24, Vivaciti and someother ones are actually resellers of Entanet.
Its their network that is used, and its the best you can get in the UK bar none, unless you go with fast.co.uk, but they are quite pricey in comparison.

Check here;

I site of a friend of mine, has a very nice rating page and a lot of info that other broadband/dsl sites miss out Wink

Coz I said in the UK speeds suck... whereas in other places around the globe, the speeds are phenomenal in comparison. So read he comments before countering what i'm saying.

Hehe, I did some work at the nearby college, and on a regular day, when everyone logs on and starts doing their stuff, we've got a downstream rate of approx. 40Mb/s, and an upstream of about 30Mb/s.
Now there are several staff members that like to set their torrents going in a morning rofl! Very Happy

Thats some serious data-exchange. But thats leased lines for ya.
Price is sick too though, we're talking thousands a month for that sort of bandwidth...
