I was thinking of changing my ISP - NTLworld / Virgin have just made the decision for me, they're no longer providing cable broadband in this area as of the end of the year. I start 4 weeks holiday on Saturday and it's probably a good idea to get it sorted while I'm off work, so I will probably try to get organized next week.

BT are probably my easiest option, since it almost certainly will have to be someone providing ADSL service through the phone network. I got some other recommendations when I asked about this a while ago, have there been any changes since then?

What they say is that their current service in this area is using BT's cable network as a carrier, which means they can't roll out their "next generation superfast broadband" as they can in other areas.

Beyond that I have no idea.

OK. That implies that in areas where they have their own cables (and the ability to maintain/upgrade them as required), things should continue as normal.

Phew! I knew they'd been struggling a bit against the hordes of ADSL operators, and wondered if this might be the beginning of the end... =:o\

Just need a soothing brandy and I'll be fine again. =;o}
