Hi
Steve
Personally I am very happy with the eclipse wires
only deal, there service is good, I haven't had a need to speak to the
helpdesk, as the activation was done so quickly, and everything was easy to
install and run.
Bear
in mind that as of April Eclipse will be approx 27 per
month.
I
have one splitter installed, and then the output of this put into my patch
panel as you describe. voice is then over structured cabling, round the
house.
I
use it permanently on, and I haven't had any problems with disconnection,
it
seems to run and run, and I can access my server it from work
too:-)
Overall a very happy (ducks) ADSL
customer....
Daniel
Guys,
about to take the plunge and order the ADSL for the house -
looks like I'll go for the eclipse wires only package and buy a router /
modem. Just wanted to confirm with those guys that are using the
service
that the level of service is good, and that this is the correct option to
eventually run CWI etc. I'm a bit out of depth here so help me.
My
understanding is that I cannot run ADSL from the pipex deal, so the extra
couple of quid to get the static IP's and no port blocking is the way to
go.
Did those of you manage to get around the splitter on every
extension successfully by using the patch panel method and running your
extensions out over the structured wiring with cat 5. I will already have
the
rats tail adaptor by the end of the week, so swmbo will complain if these
adaptors are daisy chained from every phone 'ahem... cat 5
socket'?
Hardware options seem to be from seg.co.uk or are there any
better offers out there?
James what did you get and what's the verdict? Would
preferably like something with a built in firewall so that I have a bit of
peace of mind, but built in hub isn't too important as I presume I can just
uplink to my existing hubs - is this correct.
Last thing anybody want their name on the referred by box
on
the eclipse order form?
Thanks,
Steve
