Exactly. All's well (for the most part) in the major cities, but if you're not in one of them you're damned. Basically, it's BT network for sneakernet for you.

Good luck finding a BT reseller that's not got bandwidth caps or some sort of shaping. (I know they exist, but there's not many of them - and if you do want those things, you'll probably need a business line).
- semanticist 16y agoThere's lots of ISPs who have residential packages with no traffic shaping and bandwidth caps that you can't reasonably hit with non-commercial use. I use ADSL24 and they're offering up to 90GB/month caps for 'peak' times, and no caps for off-peak: http://adsl24.co.uk/broadband/ http://adsl24.co.uk/broadband/ That's a huge amount of data transfer, especially considering that if you're in a rural exchange you're probably not getting the high ends of ADSL speeds or ADSL2+ and would find streaming video and the like a frustrating experience in any case.
