Both my home phone lines have failed the BT BB check - even Mike at Vispa
couldn't work his magic

However, I am covered by the Pipex wireless network. £41/month plus £205
installation for 30:1 512/512. Before I commit to £700, anyone have anything
good, bad or indifferent to say specifically about their wireless offering?

TIA.

It's fine. The link works. Downtime is rare but has happened
a few times for a couple of hours at a time in the two or three
years we've been using the wireless service. We've always
experienced good support.

Our link's for business, not games, so I'm not particularly
aware of ping times around the net. Download times are great.
We use their DNS servers only as secondaries for our own
domain, not for lookups, and don't use their mail servers
at all, so I don't know how well that side of things works.

Cheers Nick. My usage would be exactly the same.
