I heard it was 40-60mb from BT although I did hear awhile back it's going to be upto 100mb, I've just signed up with BT and was told the FTTC line's will be installed by the end of this year (in my area).
ISP's (Sky)
- Thread starter Tai
- Start date
BT are the only company that will be able to offer speeds of 2mb+ on uploads, virgin need to upgrade their core in order to offer uploads anywhere near this.
I read up somewhere that BT will be sharing their FTTC with other companys but then I got told no they arn't so I'm sort of confused with that. Also I'm not sure if it's true but Sky will be offering their internet through the dish (I personally think it's aload of bull) in the future.
Net via satellite? Pfft no thanks, if its anything near as bad as the signal for the tv during bad weather rather not thanks lol
Wrong. Entanet offer 10meg up via FTTC.
Also Virgin will offer 10meg up by xmas to home users.

And thats why I think it's bull**** don't know how many complaints they've had in past about signal but by god if they put net through their dish then they will be in for alot of phone calls lol.
sky i take it your dad pays for the 100m then yeh ? ive got 50mb but soon as 100 is avalable in my area il be getting it
They wanted to charge me an extra tenner a month cos of the location so I told em to shove it.
Bit gutted tho tbh
I have Virgin only pay £1 for it lol with TV
looking to get the 50mb for an extra £10
Sky/TalkTalk/Orange/O2 ect ect all use a BT line BT wont catch Virgin up for al least 2-3 years i would say.
