Digital Village

liam_h

I've just moved into my new pad for this year, and the only real option I have for internet is with a company called Digital Village who own the lines in the flats.
Has anyone ever used these? I signed up with them when I moved in but cancelled straight away as I wasn't happy. But now I have realised I can't afford getting a BT line installed, and this is the cheaper option.
Just wondering if anyone else has had dealings with them and what they thought.
Also I tried getting Xbox live running but couldn't. They do advertise you can do online gaming, just wondering if anyone got online gaming working. And what speeds you managed to connect on!
Cheers!

I know, but don't have much choice as they own the line. How has she found the speeds?

Try this link.

Just had a quick read but believe it allows you to slot their PCMIA card into your laptop and then broadband into their system for £14 per month. Have not looked at contract however is similar to having mobile phone card access but may be cheaper.

Quotes 512kb per second - better than mobile phone GPRS system ?!!!!

Anyhow you do not need lines or connections so if just after this will beat Digital Village
