hi i currently have virgin media as my ISP 8Mb package and i find it really slow in peak times and lagging like hell in cod4. i live at lambeth in london and wondered if changing to BT would be better? has any one had any problems with them? or any one recommened a better ISP living near brixton/lambeth?

The most logical suggestions would be Be* - https://www.bethere.co.uk/broadband.do

Cheaper than BT, faster than BT, unlimited usage and no sneaky restrictions.

I've been with Be* for a long time now and I've not witnessed any slow down.

£18 a month (last 2 months were free due to refer a friend), synced at 21mbps and I can "hammer" my connection if I choose to.

I'm happy.

okay

but is it reliable? do it maintain its speed during peak times when most gammers come on?

"Gammers" don't tend to load the network that much, but it's every bit as reliable as BT Retail and easily faster at peak time.
