Ok, so I took the plunge and 'got' my bt dial up upgraded to broadband last week after sales said I could get the slowest package. Needless to say nothing happened on the new hub- no broad band lights!. Despite endless phone call to the sub continent, and being told to unplug everthing a 100 times still no broadband. eventually contacted a UK operator who said because I was 10 Km from exchange unlikely to get it. trouble is my neighbour a spur of the line gets it, plus my other neighbour on the main line also is OK. I am on an off shoot (4 posts long). Engineer is coming on Thursday, and I have to ring back- Anything I can say? Demand?? Help

10K is a long way for ADSL but if your neighbours are getting it it could be a fault on your bit of the line, so finger X'ed.Nothing to see here, move along.0
