    Hi All,
    Just wanted to ask if anyone who use's a midband provider actually get the speed they advertise.

    I know all about up to 3 point what ever but does anyone actually get it from their provider?

    I ve gone through O2 Ripwave and digiweb so far and not one could reach anywhere near what they have said.

    I am in Swords which great mobuile sigle so my next choice was going to Vodafone but surely some has ran a speed test and gotten somewhere near broadband speeds?

    Note: They advertise "download speeds of up to"!
