Hello lads, well im 18 on saturday (wooohoo)
which means i can get my own bt line in my bedroom (£125).
So know im looking at ISP's

My main concern is how they run on steam/css, could you guys do me a favour and tell me what ISP your on, monthly cost and what you think of it/how it performs

Thankyou :D

BT is also good, always check what speed you can get first.

after spending 6 hours of my works valuable time,

reading loads of reviews etc, the maximum i can get from any provider is only 5meg so im not going to bother paying for 16mb, smart eh?

never found a bad review for 02: Standard (8mb) Unlimited Usage. 7.50 a month! (as im an 02 mobile user) or 12.50a month if i wasn't.

plus.net was my second choice as gaming has priority on there lines, but 15gb usage limit for 15 quid a month and speeds 8mb. Nahhh..oh well , i think i have a winner:P , although 125 quid for a line :O , thats 2 i-series tickets! ...

oh well :P

Remeber the days on which you couldnt actually connect to the internet for like 6 hours, same with kickass, everybody with Virgin actually timed out of everything (mid game) and we had to cancle.

i think you might be wrong as 100mbit would cost £1k's per month, do a www.speedtest.net and post ur result :)
