check out www.easynet.co.uk
then mail me moe.kadri@easynet.com
they sell more dsl then anyone in the uk, it is ethernet based so the contention is 20-1 not 50-1 which is the home service above.
At the end of the day you get what you pay for

I'm on Pipex ADSL and I know a load more people that have signed up to it too.
Superb!
Cheaper than BT, free installation, rapid connection/downloads, great pings for games, etc...
I'm very happy with it.

I use Pipex, I have never had any problems apart from being disconnected a couple of times, even then I suspect it was the modem.
For £23 a month

I've got my ADSL working
Not supposed to be switched on till monday, but I noticed my router had managed to establish a connection, so now I'm on broadband
T'is excellent, speeds are good, average downloads of about 45kb/s and CS pings of 30-40. Downloaded 1.6gb of linux last night, currently burning it to CD so I can have fun playing with that

Is there a fixed contract period for Pipex ADSL? I think most are 1 year but we are moving soon (around 3 months) so we may have to wait until we are in the new house.

I got wires only ADSL from PIPEX, no connection charge, £20 + VAT a month and no minimum contract, although you have to pay £50 + VAT if you cancel within one year.

If you connect via a router, your whole network automatically has internet access.
If you connect via a modem, the PC your modem is connected to has to "share" the connection, which means
a) It has to do more work, (which slows it down) and
b) The connection from other machines will be slower.

(PIPEX wires only plus Alcatel SpeedTouch 510 router/hub. Very happy.)

Thanks Andi,
Do you know why Pipex has a 3 month shortest period and all the other providers are 12 months? Doesn't really matter but I think Pipex are going to get my custom. Bring on Broadband!!!

Darlodge, 3 Months Minimum, though you have to pay the £50 (might be £60, around that anyway) installation charge thats normally free if you cancel within the first year.
