Fatec do you like in Lincoln? I honestly never have any problems and can pull over 2mb/sec pretty much any time during the day or week. The time i notice slow down is Friday evening when it drops to 13mbit and I can live with it for a couple of hours.

Stephen I know it is going to be on docsis and they have been trialling it for a while to iron out the problems. The reason I said what I did is because Lincoln has always been one of the last areas to be upgraded when they went from 3 to 10 and 10 to 20 and we have never been a trial area and when I asked why i was told it is because our area is a very good area and they need to play around with the poorer areas to make sure they fix all the problems.

I just hope that when they roll it out on Monday that they have enough staff to manage the demand and I can sign up straight away and get my modem by Wednesday or Thursday. I hate waiting for stuff when I know I have ordered it.
