Midband falls short fullstop!
Tonite it is only running at 12kbps for me . . . and I live just 500 metres from the exchange too.
Frankly, it is slower than my old 56K modem operating via an analogue line at my workplace in Birmingham.
And guess what - one of the slowest pages to load is BT's own website, and when I rang for technohelp last night, I got cut off on each of the 3 times I rang after going round in circles with their b*****y stupid "press this, press that, press the pesky other!" I spent nearly an hour getting nowhere.
BT are utterly, utterly, utterly useless.
