Question

I've been putting up with the more wonderful facets of AOL for far to long now. At the moment BT won't do broadband and NTL don't have cable anywhere near. The best connection speed I'm getting at the moment is 31200bps when its not disconnectig itself and causing all manner of crashes. What do you recommend?

Thanks for the suggestions. Would changing ISP alter the speed of the connection? Obviously Broadband would, but how would changing from AOL to Tiscali improve things if its using the same line and telephone exchnge??

Cheers,

Karl
