Hiya!

Not really sure how many people in Lusty are from England, but hopefully I'll get some response.

Next week I'm moving in to a new place and I'll need a new connection to internet (read Lusty). Now from the research I've already done there are only two ISPs who offer 20Mbit/s connection at my new place (as per some internetcrapcomparesite who checked by postcode). One is Virgin Media and the other is o2 broadband.

Does anyone have any feedback on o2 broadband? I'm particularly interested in o2 because at the moment I have 20Mbit connection from Virgin and I can't say I'm in awe. The speed of course is OK, but the stability of the connection isn't that great. Now I do suspect that it could actually be an issue with the WiFi router, but at the moment I just can't check by pluging in the cable directly.

Anyway, if someone is on o2 and can say something about the performance they're getting, do let me know.
Thanks!

Cheers.

We had 02 before and ditched it for BT. It's been better since. That's all I can tell you.

Well, thanks for the reply Shiri.
Anyway, it seems that Virgin is the only option after all because that crapinternetcomparesite was proper crap and I actually can't get o2 at my place.
Virgin it is then...

Also, it seems I've traced down my lag problem. It's the wireless router that causes it, not the connection. At least it seems so as there is no lag when logging on from a different connection.

Thanks again!
