Virgin pilots 200Mbps broadband

[Berch]

I think it was last month I downloaded about 80GB in 1 week.

Who are you and what have you done with Chris?

[Christian]

When I was with Virgin it was a nightmare! If I wanted to download a few movies a week then the next week my internet would get 'throttled' to download speeds of 8 kb/s. Now I am BT I can download as much as I want, I downloaded 40GB in one week without being throttled, excellent I say.

hmm. maybe it's cause i'm using a dodgey modem then.

Just think, you will NEED gigabit LAN or Wireless N to use the full potential. No doubt VM will provide this free.

They already do offer this with there 50 meg package free.

I think the 200 meg will me class upgrade again when it comes

Lol

I'll stick with my 20mb connection from Be for £17 p/m (yes I get 20meg. isn't it grand, much cheaper than Virgin with nicer upload)

And Be are trialling line bonding which will be nice.

Does your e-penis grow when you buy 200 meg net for the hell of it or something? :S

LMAO! That made me LOL! I have to +Rep you for that one! I think Virgin will oversell their network soon and nobody will get anything as it would cost a lot to upgrade.

Brad, I doubt you will get 200MB/s because it WILL cost a lot. I would NEVER pay anymore than 25 - 30 pounds for internet... Not worth paying ridicoulous amounts for internet
