Stirling_Villeneuve Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 I'm in a village with a local exchange, I think my upload's something like 6.7 download and shamefully slow upload. I recently got a circular about satellite that promises to be 18 on the download and 6+ upload. Prices aren't too shabby either and I"m seriously thinking of giving it a try.... is anyone using a satellite service?

dodgy Posted November 25, 2012 Report Share Posted November 25, 2012 Doesn't the Sat service still have to use the same land line to provide an internet service though?

Mysterae Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Apparently it's been at 100mb for months but I didn't know. I had 50mb and my router kept bombing out, so I finally rebooted the virgin modem and the speed doubled! The modem was trying to tell me something... Quote Signature not working...

Al. Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Can't see the picture grab but got this http://www.speedtest.net/result/2338341020.png Download 7.65 Upload 0.96 Ping 35ms Tried getting Infinity this week. Been available from our exchange since March. No end of calls and fliers about it but I have always been away too much to commit to being around. So call them and they tell me not available despite half my neighbours having it and it being advertised on my bill every month!! Seems we have sold out of available lines for it! Will have to wait for more space to become available - sometime! So the early birds did get the worms....... Quote A LEGS man and proud to declare it!

Bibs Posted January 20, 2013 Report Share Posted January 20, 2013 Living on a farm we've only been getting 2.5mb for the last year with BTinternet @ £25/month. Just switched to Sky, 6 months free then £7/month thereafter and we're getting 4mb already! Both unlimited accounts. Go figure!!

Bibs Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Latency, kinda thing eg how quickly external computers respond to your computers request. Under 30ms is good, longer means you click 'n wait. It's also important for online gaming too, the lower the better.
