  • Hi Smiling Sophie,

    To find the perfect provider for you we'll need to know what you use your Internet connection for.

    Do you download a lot?
    Do you many use your broadband connection to surf the web and check your email?
    Do you frequently use Newsgroups?

    Most broadband providers base their packages on your bandwidth and if you post how you use the Internet I'm sure that you'll get loads of suggestions for deals that would work for you.

    Kind regards,
    Samara

    With broadband its definitely you get what you pay for, so the cheapest may not be the best.

    Check http://www.adslguide.org.uk on their comparison rates between the various isps :)

    sounds like you might need a high usage account - zazizam offer unlimited packages... i have found them to provide a great service over the years, so happily recommend....

    you will also probably need a router, so all 4 of your computers can be online at the same time - i get away easily with a 512k connection over 5 :)

    I must admit i am pretty clueless with this sort of thing so this was really helpful..
