change?


[link to this post]
 
Hi all,
I am currently with adsl24 30 gig package, I live in the sticks so no llu available and on a 2.5 m BT profile but get nowhere near this speed most of the time. Looking at plusnet premium... is this a good package/ provider to change to? Any help appreciated

Cheers
Nick

Just be aware of the Plusnet traffic shaping on their network for the various packages.

Edit > if you have a bit more money to spend have a look here, could be too costly for you.

Yes bit concerned about their shaping, as I use p2p a little. Looked a idnet , 30 package is a little costly , shame they dont do an inbetween package. Are speeds reliable on plusnet?

thanks for replies, this maybe the way to go , but are speeds reliable on this package? Seems to be some bad reports similar to Enta on this isp. Dont want to tie into a 12 month contract and be no better off.

Cheers

There is no 12 month contract. The contract is a 10 day contract with tie only thing to pay to leave with 10 days notice is the migration fee if you decide to defer it and the router if you choose to take one. These charges expire after 12 months.

Have you had a look at packages from Newnet?

"Unlimited" during their off peak hours of 2.00am until 7.00am

Newnet maybe the way to go...... 20gig package should be just managable if I watch my 2 teens usage... haha
