Verizon FiOS. It seems to me that it used to be faster. We just got the PC back from being repaired.
The problem with having an open mind is that people keep trying to put things in it.

The speed in the man cave, wireless, two floors away from the gateway:

I'm just glad it reaches from all the way downstairs to all the way up here, although I'll probably convert to "n" when the man cave is finished.

After seeing Andy's speed I feel so, well.....inadequate. :sad:

For most things, our home 2meg broadband line is pretty much as fast as work. In reality 400meg is a bit like driving a supercar in London traffic.
I do like last-second ebay bidding through the university service though.
Every morning the soul is once again as good as new, and again one offers it to one's brothers & sisters in life.

What about for downloading though? Would a download that takes me 10 minutes download for you in seconds?

Maybe, what takes 10 minutes? And online games I suppose would run smoothly; but with a young family I don't have time to watch all the stuff we record off Sky never mind the internet. And I try to fit some piano practice in every day...

Well, a TV episode on iTunes, for example, takes me about an hour I think.
