Re: 25Mbit Symetrical

Indeed, makes me seriously want to move again.
Friend of mine has ask4 in sheffield and he gets 25mbit both ways all day everyday..does around 3TB/month with no complaints, not bad for £50/month! |

Thanks for making the 100Mb Fibre rollout here look really really bad... 10Mbit up.
Never known anywhere to be able to max out 100Mb downstreams, but i know plenty of uses for 25Mb/s up.
God damn... lol.

Re: 25Mbit Symetrical
Always welcome Druchii
10mbit up is a bad ratio for 100mbit down though...
rather have the 25 symetrical in all honesty |

Well, that's a point i guess.
Hmm, ask4 got a website or something, seems odd they'd be able to install so easily for just one customer, unless it's an option to all the new builds or something?

Not exactly all that pricey for what's on offer either.

I only left Sheffield 3 years ago... lol.
Max speed i could get at my place was 7Mb on ADSL Max. Expensive though back then (I know 3 years isn't long.. blah blah).
Probably get 20 out of the ADSL2+ packages.

What would you use that upload for? Is it just to help your download on Torrents, or are there more legitimate uses for it (to the home user).
