I have sky and get between 12 and 16mb/s , we have 3 xboxes on sometimes and can watch on demand at the same time with no problems. I can understand if you download loads of films but if not, I just don't see the point.
Someone enlighten me
my broadband is pants hereit's ok when it works, but at certain times it dips to mega slow and sometimes drops out altogether. Ive been complaining at BT for ages. They admit theres a problem in this area and have compensated me for it. They say a combination of cable theft and work to upgrade the exchange, which is now done and why I can finally upgrade. We can't get cable here either

Past a certain speed it is only any use if you are downloading massive files as you say.
But if it is the same price etc why not.When The Fun Stops Stop0 -

Some of us don't get the speeds you do, so anything, that helps maintain downloads is helpful.
I had both DS's at home over Easter, and whilst they were online, I couldn't watch iPlayer, even if I selected lower bandwidth.The mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work unless it's open0 -

I think its a case of if you have never had superfast you dont know what you are missing.
We have the slowest connection ever as we are miles from our junction box and ok sometimes we do have some very bad days but these are unusual and often its only an hour or 2.
But despite this both main computers run without problems, one shiny new and one old and decrepit plus the iPad, these 3 on all day, most days plus whatever else is connected - laptops, kindle, net books etc. in theory it should not work at all and sky have said to us it wont work but it does and mostly without any problems.“Create all the happiness you are able to create; remove all the misery you are able to remove.
