    With a 3mb connection what speed would you download at? Around 380KB/s?

    I wonder if I should change to Telewest. Do you need a BT phone line?

    Well the house I live in has a BT line but Telewest is cable anyhow. As long as you're in an area covered by them they will set you up.

    If you visit their site and enter your postcode you can find out if your covered.

    The postcode you have entered is outside the Telewest Broadband
    cabled area. Unfortunately, this means it is not possible to offer
    you any of our services at present.

    You may be in an area serviced by NTL. You can contact NTL directly
    via their website.
    Guess I'm stuck with NTL then. I wonder why Telewest would reccomend NTL, are they in some way affiliated?

    From what I heard Telewest own NTL as NTL is in mass amount of debt, But I could be wrong.

    If NTL is anything like Blueyonder I highly recommend you try them.
    I wasn't going to buy it in the first place, so me downloading it for free isn't losing them any money.

    Oh yea , The speeds should be the same as Blueyonder's pretty soon. I asked Telewest why my speed has improved as it wasn't due to end of May and they said they're running ahead of schedule so NTL is sure to be upgraded soon with a bit of luck you might get it before the date they state.

    Yes, 380KB/s. 3mb means 3mbps, and 1mbps are 128KB/s (1mbps=1024kbps and 1kB/s=8kbps). Is easy
