Install...
Well, the BT guy called this morning dead on time
at
8 AM having called 15minutes earlier on his way to make sure that I was
in/up
(kudos to the guy for that).
I
think it was the easiest install he'd had to do ... given that the previous
occupants had had HH before we'd moved in then the phone point was right
where
it was most convenient, there was still the power point right by it too. He
even hooked the box up onto the original two screws that the
previous one had been hanging from!
Anyway ... it's encouraging ... I'm connecting in
less time and getting connection speeds of 45.6kbits with transfer rates of
about 4kbytes/sec - AND THAT'S ON MY ANALOGUE MODEM! Dang ... I've
complained about the crap line quality that we have many times before and
there's always (supposedly) been nothing that they could do. It seems I
could
get an immediate hike in analogue modem speed by upgrading to HH! *grin*
Anyway ... will try out my ISDN TA this afternoon/evening and see what we
can
get on that!
Cheers Guys.
Phil
