[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 819070, member: 323322"] Not sure if you're answering me or wolsty (or both!), but that's a kind offer - I shall stick with Crunchbang as it suits both myself (Household Network Admin) and SWMBO (Management) Not surprised there's someone out there with even worse Broadband - We do have an alternative in the village now owing to a scheme between a Private Company and North Yorkshire County Council >>>> One of my neighbours has a microwave link to a base station a few miles away and he has been given a local re-tranmission antenna and other gubbins (I haven't delved into the precise details yet) so anyone else in the village can sign up. Sounds not dissimilar to your arrangement. It's fast (Around 40Mbps, IIRC) but not cheap at around £30 per month. I'm quite happy paying £7.50 per month right now, but am considering a Dongle for accessing via the Cell Phone infrastructure and perhaps even doing away with the landline altogether. [/QUOTE]
