Hello,

I'm just about to move to a house with a maximum 512kbps connection. Can anyone recommend a suitable ISP? I'm currrantly with Virgin but don't fancy paying 8Mbps prices for such a slow link. I'm also having ping problems with them and can very rarely play fps games in the evening.

Usage will be fairly light, although I do download audio books from audible. A decent ping for CS and BF2 would be a requirement too.

The UK Online 1mb deal doesn't look too bad, does anyone have a better alternative or any horror stories of these guys?

Thanks in advance

edit..

thought I'd add, the line is limited to BT wholesale connections and there is no cable link. I'm off to the middle of nowhere :D

With the majority of ISPs, the price doesn't vary with your connection speed but rather with how much you've transferred across the connection.
 
If all you can get is the BT Wholesale services, you're going to wind up paying £19.99 for 512kbps - no cheaper than an "up to 8Mbps" from anyone else.
