    Well, when it was still billed separately, it was 10€/month, but a while back they changed it so that it's included with the rent of the apartment and is not billed separately, but I suppose it's still about the same price.

    10 Euros a month! 10 Euros a month! I am paying 36 Euros a month for a crappy 4 Mb connection. Right, I am phoning up tomorrow and demanding a speed increase, otherwise I am moving to Finland. Another example of Rip-Off-Britain. Hurumph!

    Well, TOAS is a non-profit student housing organization so the prices are a bit higher in the commercial market. Here's some pricing of a commercial Finnish ISP (in finnish but you get the idea): http://www.sonera.fi/artikkeli2/0,38...335645,00.html

    "liittymismaksu" = subscription fee

    "/kk" = /month

    Interesting. From what I can tell, it is still much, much better than the UK. You are very lucky!

    Best I can get is 640 kb/s (5mbit)

    Can't complain. Now, if only my ISP had free binaries... That would result in some serious downloading.

    I only get 5,162 kbit/sec with Usenet- this seems very slow.

    Normally I can get 2.0 mb/sec.

    DO you know how I can fix this speed issue.

    you got that wrong...

    If you get 5,162kb (Kilobits) then your getting 5mb (megabits)...

    Its not hard to work out what your getting... It will be shown in either kb or KB so your getting 5,162kb (5mb) which is equal to 645KB or just over half a MB.

    Bytes > bits
    Kilobytes > kilobits
    Megabytes > megabits
    Gigabytes > gigabits
