BT DSL Question

I need to order ADSL to replace a service that is being ceased next
month. For reasons that would take far too long to explain, the retail
provider I choose must be some flavour of BT - be it BTBB, BTYahoo,
BTBBB.

The BT ADSL site doesn't give me the information I need to be sure of
making the right decision. I need a package that allows about 35-40Gb of
traffic per month - which probably rules out all the consumer packages.

The Business Packages come in three types - Single, Shared, Network.
Since I already have a Router and Wireless AP for the three machines
here, I don't care what kit is provided, it'll go in a drawer anyway.

The question is, if I do stick the freebie kit in a drawer, does it
matter which of the three types I choose? Are they all at 30:1
contention?

Thanks in advance

If you require 35-40GB of traffic a month then the business packages
will be better for you, as BTY will be introducing a 15GB a month
limit on the 500 service and 30GB a month for their 1 meg service
in the early part of next year. BTY Support have said that the
business packages will not be capped at all.

But will no doubt have a "fair use" clause limiting the amount, at a
level designed to ensure that half the business customers have to step
up to a more expensive package.
