Catlin, they are still trying to flog me their broadband and I keep telling them to shove off. I've been on ADSL loooooooooong before they brought out their broadband, after chasing them for ages and ages and being told 'In three months' for nearly 2 years, I had a BT line installed and got on BT Openworld. So now they keep telling me "Oh but you can get much faster speeds with NTL" and the very second I ask them if that comes with a static IP, a proper router, NAT translation, Firewalling on the router etc etc etc they just blink, swallow hard and go "Umm.... I don't know." Their problem is that when they try to sell it to me, I know more than the person at the other end of the phone. When I spoke to BT I had a very savvy person on the line who was able to answer all my questions perfectly. I'm currently looking at Freedom2surf because they offer high speed, static IP, NAT, etc etc etc for a very low price. (I'm looking at the 2mb connection) It's also monthly which isn't such a bad deal, if they are no good, I'm not tied in for a year.
