For general surfing I think anything about 128Mbit is a waste. My mother has 128 and on general website surfing the difference between her connection and mine is very difficult to spot.
When it comes to big downloads though the story is reversed. 😄

I have 600mb Cable connection, it's more than adequate.

I've got Cable Broadband, never have any trouble.
BTW, I've been giggling like a school child reading these posts....have any of you heard the phrase "laying some cable" used to describe another cruder thing? 😂

Yes but trust you to mention it.

Woohoo, FINALLY got a start date for my ADSL to come back on. Only one week more to go...
It better be quick as I'm actually getting used to 56k on AOL *shudders*

Installation was a nightmare though... grr...

It must be like that TV show. 'Living in a Victorian House...'
