Well I've got it Mark, and it is marvellous, it just takes a bit of
shopping
around to find the right ISP. Although BT provide the link into their ATM
network, and decide the various bandwidths available, each ISP is free to
configure the service individually. IF you want it in the UK then you can
do
no better than buying from www.madasafish.com It is fixed IP with no port
blocking, for the same price as BT.

Ruairi,

One other thing (and apologies if you know this already.)

You will see a lot of discussion on this group about ADSL vs. ISDN.
There are two things to be careful of when reading those discussions
from a Spanish perspective.

1: ISDN (Integrated Services Digital Network) is what you call RDSI
(Red Digitales Servicios Integrados). I've come across a fair amount
of confusion with people thinking that RDSI is ADSL!

2: A lot of the things we complain about when talking about ADSL are
_not_ inherent problems with ADSL, but to do with the way that BT has
implemented and marketed this in the UK. Telefonica seems to have
done a better technical job with ADSL in Madrid, but you should take
some _local_ advice about provision, and not assume that our problems
will be your problems.

Saludos,

Mark
