dial-up or broadband?
I'm sure this has been done before, but I would like an upto date view of the mix of dial-up and broadband users.
If you are on broadband, who do you use and what speed is your connection?

Zen 512 --- fast for 512 so I don't feel the need for 1meg even though the price difference is tiny. No download cap, no limmit on webspace,
very reliable, great customer service but expensive at just under 25 pounds.
I don't think dial up is useable anymore mainly because of the need to upgrade software on line, and it leaves you open to dialer trojans.

Wanadoo broadband. 1mb with 2gb limit. 17.99 a month. No troubles with it.
These others sound like good deals!!
Dial up is a waste of time nowadays. Far too slow.

1mb broadband, unlimited, through Pipex for about £23 per month.
There are slightly cheaper packages out there, but Pipex has been 100% reliable.

BtBroadband.
The basic package - 512kbits - 20 quid or so. That's the limit on my line because of distance to the exchange.
Previously lived in a cable area and had 2mb when it was unheard of.
In all honesty, I don't feel short changed being on 512kb now. It does everything I need, is always on and, errr that's it.

How come, with BT, you pay exactly the same for 2mb to 512kb?
