Oh and unlimited downloads too...

Apparently tesco.net is £19.99 and 512k/unlimited as well, but not sure about the contract thing...

Unless you are seriously gonna download alot of data 2gb should be satisfactory, although if you over run that 2gb they will charge you around £1.50 per gig, penuts



Still capped though , i downlad 2gd a day so that wouldnt work for me :(

Wanadoo is quite good. I've been on it for about a year and half and always been able to conect 1st time. Was on BT Broadband back at home (well sort of still am -- lol) which is also also quite good and had no probs. Both 1MB BTW. The BT one goes on your phone bill whereas Wanadoo goes out your bank. Wanadoo is £10 a month cheaper than BT which is all good. BT are greedy though, they charge you an extra £1.50 a month just to be able to use you e-mail in Outlook.

Anyway I've been looking at wanadoo 1MB which is £18 a month with free modem+connection, but you have to sign up for a year.

Are there any others like this without a contract? (I.E 512 or 1MB with free connection+modem around that price)

If not what is the Wanadoo like?

Cheer Mark.

Also, Wanadoo 1mb at £18/month has a quota for downloads. These suck.
I'm on Nildram, they're reliable, quick and fairly cheap.

http://www.ndo.com - like ZenADSL, a bit more £ than most, but it's a proper service and is reliable.
My contract's quarterly.
Don't sign up anywhere for a year.
