A question about : AOL Broadband offers (merged threads)

Don't know if this is new or I've just missed it, or my maths is rubbish. This seems like a reliable way to get cheap broadband if you haven't jumped in yet, without paying upfront or paying for a modem or connection, free email support, and an 0870 helpline, which although is not as good as freephone, is much better than some premium set ups. Possibly also an option for ex-e7even victims who want a cheap connection from a company that will not go bust.

A question about : Has anyone tried Onspeed?

www.onspeed.com*

I've seen this advertised in the press a lot and wondered if it is any good. Does anyone know if it works?

A question about : Fast4/V21/Biscit (merged threads)

I have been unable to connect to Fast4 since last night (Saturday, 30th September). Sometimes I get engaged tone, other times it dials but then I get the message Invalid Username and Password. I am still unable to connect this morning (Sunday). There's nothing posted on their system status board.

Is anyone else experiencing the same problems. I haven't been with them long, but there does seem to be more and more problems.

A question about : E7even

For the 3rd day running I have had no broadband.

Customers received an email saying the network would be upgraded between 28th Dec - 4th Jan.

An 0800 number was issued for those wishing to use the dialup connection whilst this was going on. I have never been able to connect to it. Neither have many other people.

A question about : BT I-Plate promises to speed up ADSL connections by up to 60%; will it work for you?

What's the deal?

The 'I-Plate' made by BT sits inside your master phone socket, and speeds up your broadband by reducing interference to increase data flow. It can boost speeds by up to 60%, but for it to work, your house needs to have the right type of master socket (see pic below).
