Time to enjoy it after your long wait.

Hell yeah tongue

I can see that a lot of online services cap you way before we hit the 300Mb mark, which isn't that bad, just means we won't affect anyone else in the house.

But overall I am very please smile

Any news on how long it takes for FVA to be enabled, I was told anything from 20 mins to a Month, its not an issue, I just want to get off the copper phone line completely.

Well I am a software / game developer in my spare time, so there is loads of uploading and downloading, which was a pain on our old ADSL2+ connection that lost connection when the phone rang LOL.
Now I will also be able to start thinking about content creation (I felt a disturbance in the force) smile

Also there is 5 Adults here that all use the internet, and with 300Mbps, everyone will have a reasonable speed.

Yep, Xbox Live was capping the downloads at about 125Mbps, but their built in speed test had no cap and I got the full speed.
Also seems Xbox Live is based in the US due to we get a latency to them of 132ms so overall not too bad.

I wasn't trying to be sarcastic, I was more referring to the fact I was unaware of them capping due to we use to have very slow ADSL speeds.

*** update ***
And I just realised what you meant, so my brain is broken LOL

BTBroadband - Infinity 4 - 310Mbps (down), 31Mbps (up)
