ISP in Central London

Daveyboyuk · 6 Dec 2007 at 09:36

Hey guys,

Just wondering what peoples experience with different ISPs in central London are? I am moving to Fleet Street and I am looking for a reliable broadband provider. I am pretty sure it is an ADSL area.

Thanks
Daveyboy

seems you have a wide choice of broadband technologies, may I suggest Be

for home use you may as well use Be, I wouldn't touch them for business though - actually I wouldn't touch them at all, but I have uncapped dsl max for free from work (along with full access to the core routers...stuff support, i'll fix it myself...)

Cheers guys. This is for home use by the way.

Be or Ukonline. I use UKOnline myself and its amazing. One of my good friends uses Be and that is also good.

try an Enta reseller they are some of the best on the market today. http://www.ispreview.co.uk/review/top10.php they are 3, 6 and 7 in the list.

Do NOT use TalkTalk as, amongst all their other problems, even they have admitted they have severe capacity problems in London and some users are being cut off purely because there is no more space available for them.

Be looks quite good. What is their router like?

I would have thought that since the residential density in that area is so low but the exchange needs the capacity for all the businesses in the area, at the evenings and weekends you'll be home and dry and getting very good speeds.

Be or virgin if you can get cable.
