Best 1MB or 2MB Broadband with unlimited downloads?

Post by BiscLimpkit »

Anyone recommend an ISP, which offers 1MB or 2MB download speed? With Uncapped downloads?

Thanks a lot.

I don't think the retention ratio is the best but Tiscali offer very good prices. I've never had a problem, neither has my Mum and Sister. Rentention ratio is how many users share "their" modems and the lower retention ratio the better.

The trouble is the deals with a low retention ratio cost more. I've no problem with Tiscali's download speed and I suspect you won't either as you're after 1Mb/2Mb, which says to me you don't download loads.

Free Router, Free setup, 8Mb Unlimited all for £14.99 a month (12 month contract):

Have a look at this very good article:

p.s - For best performance don't even plug in the shit USB modem if you're given one and get an Ethernet based router, which Tiscali now offer. Many problems lie with cheap USB modems being used.

Actually I do. My line's whack though - I can only get like 1-2MB max. I'm paying for an 8MB connection, which is way too much.

Thanks a lot for the recommendations guys. Much appreciated.
