As I can't get even get 512k ADSL as the string is too slack between the BT cans. I have to make do with 10Mb Cable. Strange they were quick enough to install an ISDN service for me years ago.

BTW the company pays so costs me nought

Cable is better IMO. No need to have a phone line or pay line rental. VOIP is the future!

I now pay £7.99 a month through vonage. Unlimited landline calls nationwide and cheaper for everything else. No line rental as i run it through NTL broadband.

I think BT will be forced soon to allow ADSL connections without telephone service.

When that happens i will happly move to VoIP.

My mate is waiting for that to happen as he doesnt want to have a landline just to have broadband - its money for nothing if you dont use it!

I use a voip service from voipuser All landline calls (national and international) are free. They make their money from the incomming connection charge. But to stop abuse they limit your call to 10 mins. Works fine for me but missus/daughters cannot get on with time limited phone calls

Default I wish

I can only get 1 Mb and then only on a good day. I spend more time with no phone/adsl line than enough. I live in a town as well not some little inbred village.
