Real "unlimited", unthrottled 8Mb ADSL?

Does such a nirvana exist?

I've finally had enough of TalkTalk Business due to my evening speeds dropping to around 0.3Mbps when they're at 5-6Mb out of peak hours. TalkTalk say it's congestion between my exchange and their network which I guess means I should be able to switch to another ISP without problems. I started off with Nildram and had a full 7Mbps connection at all times before TalkTalk ended up with them

I want to be able to download PC games from Steam and stream Netflix without worrying about tripping over a ridiculously low peak-time cap.

My exchange hasn't been LLUed, has no ADSL2 and no date for Fibre.

I've looked at IDNet who look good from their "no throttling / traffic management" perspective, but they have a ludicrously low 40GB (peak) cap per month Three PC games from Steam will eat that up straight away.

I keep hearing that BT are properly unlimited usage now, but how's their throttling for general evening use and streaming video services?

I generally have no P2P use (unless a game installer uses it for the download) and don't use Usenet.

Is BT Business a better bet than BT retail?

Thanks in advance

Does such a nirvana exist?

Yep as long as you are prepared to pay for it

e.g. from one ISP:- £100+VAT per month (Business package) or around £40 inc VAT for 120GB usage a month (residential package)

The Wonderer

BT pretty much claim to only manage P2P traffic these days on consumer products.

So if after the high usage peak time and no LLU, then BT Total Option 3 is maybe the way to go.

TalkTalk Business on an IPStream is something I would not expect to perform well. Investment in capacity probably ended when Nildram went.

I moved from Talk Talk to Zen, never looked back!

That sounds perfect to me, I'm not fussed if they throttle my incredibly minimal P2P traffic

Thanks again!
