Fraid its not quite that good now Mike (but better than for you Tracy).
Latest quote I have from the N Wales provider is:

"Up to 256k download =A312.99 per month.

Up to 512k download =A316.99 per month.

Up to 1Mb download =A324.99 per month.

Up to 2Mb download =A337.99 per month.

All of the above have up to 256k upload=20

One off Equipment charge of =A399

Free Installation"

Being stuck out in a rural area I'm not at all likely to see BT Broadband
for some time yet.
Our local exchange has a trigger point of 400 and we only have 157
registered.
On top of this looking the the BT web site tells me that I would only get
512k at best due to my distance from the exchange.

A local computer outfit is advertising Wireless Broadband and has already
got service to several villages in this area so I'm considering this
service
The service is advertised as 512k download, 256k upload for =A323.50 a mo=
nth
with a minimum term of two years.

However before I approach them I thought I'd ask the list if there are an=
y
salient questions that I should be asking?

Thanks

Tracey
