Need some advice on ISP

[Guest snakecracker]

Hey guys/girls.

Need some help My ISP, which is BT is playing me and my mum about with everything, so I'm looking to go on Virgin. but i can't get Fiber optic. But i can get there National Service. They say i can get up-to-20MB downlaod speeds.

I'm hoping to hear if there service is any good?

Just wanted to see if they are any good cause BT are right :censored: LOL

Thanks.

I wish I could help you out but our main ISP here is Comcast for the fastest speed, then AT&T (DSL) and Earthlink which sucks. LOL. There is dialup but no need to swear. LOL.

20mb, OMFG that would be nice but it's not like you will ever see that. I have like 14 down and 2 up and I only see 800-1.2mb DL and 100-145 UL with Comcast.

I have Virgin cable (not fiber) and it's awesome! I get 1.2MB/sec download rates at best.

I have the 10MB connection.

i don't think that speed exist in egypt any way

This is my speed:

Comcast is the best here for speed and they have 2 plans here.

Economy Internet Service: $24.95

Way faster than dial-up with downloads up to 1 Mbps and uploads up to 384 Kbps.

* No dialing in required and no tying up the phone line.

* Download speeds that are way faster than dial-up.

* The highly-acclaimed, McAfee Security Suite

You could always give Eclipse Internet a try I've been using them for a few years now without any problems. The only gripe I have is their fair usage of 50Gb download a month, but this only applies between the hours of 9am and 11pm, after that all downloads are not monitored.

These is the speeds that I am getting with them

[Mr_Smartepants]

DSL speeds depend on line quality/distance. Mine sucks. I always recommend cable.

[Guest snakecracker]

I had a look at that ISP and my mum said nah so we are going with virgin.

Thanks for the advice guys!
