Daniel Fortunov's Blog » O2 Broadband: Right on the mark

It took a week but we finally have broadband at the new flat. The O2 package seemed like the best value for money and their connection speeds look to be right on the mark:

The Standard Home package is rated at "Up to 8 meg" downstream and "Up to 1.3 meg" upstream, so I think this is the first time I've seen home broadband actually achieve the advertised speeds! (Though it's not exactly a time of peak-demand.)

Now I just have the dilemma of whether to upgrade to the Premium, or even Ultimate package, for 16 or 20 meg of downstream bandwidth... but that's probably overkill.
