Yep after 5 months I am typing this having accessed via BT Openworld ADSL.

WOW is it quick or what. I can hardly keep up with it....

Now I shall write to the Chief Exec and ask for some free months after all the problems I have had getting it.

Hi All
Go to http://www.broadband-help.com/home.asp

Essential reading for anyone going broadband. We use Blueyonder at work and get over a Gig of bandwidth, have very little trouble at all with it.
At home I mistakenly have BT Openworld. I have had so much trouble and problems with it since installation - nightmare. Packet loss has been the most consistent problem - Try downloading web pages when the gamers are soaking up the bandwidth, ends up slower than 56k modem!
Worth reading the review section on BB Help site....
