Moving house on the 27th.

Which broadband provider?

Is sky any good? Virgin? Im with Tiscali at the moment, but they're shit. Want 8mb broadband if possible in the new house, if not 2mb, but i actually want 2mb! Tiscali's 2mb broadband is more 0.2

Thanks

yup what he said, they use fiber optics, it should not lose speed the further away from the exchange you are.

have you rang them to see what the problem is?
