I'm looking for a new service provider, I'm currently with Virgin Meida but it seems so slow I'd like to change DSL prefered

Which service provider would you say is the best?
 
Holy wrong forum section batman!

It basically depends how good your DSL service is, i.e. how close you are to an exchange. Virgin Media are leading the way in shafting the consumer it seems, but who's to say others won't follow, and cable is in theory the fastest connection as it's more likely to be rock solid and less subject to contention.

But if you can get a decent DSL service then Be are meant to be the best.
 
Be without a doubt after moving from Aol and the hell attached with trying to move from aol which for me was content pleading to aol for my mac ,so far its been a breath of fresh air with Be hope it stays like that.
 
With BE you get to choose a Static IP and a Dynamic IP whats the differance?


Edit: Nevermind I know now Static you keep Dynamic changes everytime you dial-up right?


Whats the BE box like anyone had any trouble using it with either PS3/360/Wii?

Be are probably the best at the moment, from what I've heard. I'm with Virgin Media and 60% of the time it's very good, but with download throttling it's not worth it
 
Bear in mind that if you're on cable you need a BT phone line, which might mean paying an installation fee, and definitely means paying line rental on top of what you give your ISP.
