I've got it Steve - seems ok to me mate, no problems so far. I didn't use the install disk that comes with it tho as it apparently alters your browser settings etc.

I'm on the up to 8Mb speed, I would have gone for more but my local exchange only supports 2.5Mb so couldn't see the point in paying for the higher speed. If you decide to go for it, when you ring up ask the Call Centre blokie to check your exchange....oh and don't let them con you in to sending an engineer to 'install' it, it cost Ł60 I think and it's only a coupla wires!
