Hey all,

Have a fair few gigs of photos accumulated since the dawn of digital cameras, and tried to upload them all to Dropbox a few months ago for safe keeping, but gave up before long as it was taking DAYS to upload them on my standard 36meg fibre (Obviously much slower upload).

Any ideas on how I can get what I need uploaded faster, be it public building or a faster service?
 
36Mbps down, but what about the upload? Some of the cheaper packages only have 2Mbps upload, which is barely any better than ADSL.

Truth be told i'm connecting wirelessly at the moment (Was wired when I tried uploading last), so I cant really get a fair Speed Test done.

And yeah all the photos are high res!
 
2Mbps up is quite slow isn't it I get 20 like Thompson_ncl on bt infinity 2.
OP any idea how far your fibre cabinet is?
Andi.

Probably around 1-2km if the cable goes the route I think it does, live in a very old village though so wouldn't surprise me if the cables shot to bits :(

As expected, will just have to do them in smaller batches I imagine and wait!
