Those speeds are something we can only dream of around here. :'(

Some of us are stuck with slowband as neither Vermin nor Noreach will update the local infrastructure!  And I'm in the middle of a town!!

We might, might get something in 4-5 years according to the Gov't BDUK Scheme.  What a joke.....a bad one.

Don't you just love it when someone posts up mega speeds from their fibre optic connection, and you know full well, that living in a sleepy Kent village backwater, that those speeds are a far distant thought. It'll be years before I get more than 6.5 down and 0.3 up.

No chance for me, load balancing multiple lines the only option for me.
