Question

Whats the minimum you can get away with?

NTL offer 600K or 1MB and a £10 difference between the two..

Cheers, Alex

i don't think it's transfer rate that's overly applicable, 600k does me fine although i do quite fancy the 1mb as it has twice the upload

I'd go for the 1Mb if the other half wants to surf at the same time and you're online. No chance of lag then

I'm on 600k, mine works fine on xbox live (even when the mrs is on the web too).

Actually well impressed with the ntl 600k setup.

Cheers James

I prefer the 600K option based on the price difference more than anything.
