    Any feedback on how these guys are....., packages are good with very high caps........?
    They also offer a 600Mb package.....
    Alternative is Vodafone as it appears that Sky are at least 3-4 months away from even having packages for sale.....
    I think Airwire allow you to have your own router as well.......

    Interested in feedback just got Siro available

    (**) - So why is the speed specified as up to ? For our Pro packages, we will provide the fastest speed that is available based on your geographic location and your distance to the next base or exchange. This could be anything from 6 mbit to 40 mbit on fixed wireless, up to 100 mbit on cable/vdsl or faster on fiber. The upload speed depends a bit on the platform, but would typically be 10-20% of the download speed. If technology changes, these upgrades will automatically apply to your connection. We'll advise you of the max speed possible during the installation.

    so speeds highly dependent on infrastructure currently available at your location.

    Was with them about 4 years ago on the equivalent of their current Intermediate package but left due to faster speeds available from Lightnet and then Imagine.
    Very interesting to see they offer a 2TB cap at the same price point as Imagine's 20Gb/day (+ unconfirmed unlimited 12am-7am) fixed wireless offering. Might tempt me to get a survey done at least to see what speeds i can get now on their newer FWA.

    i'm in a Siro enabled area, so i'm going FTTH with them or with Vodafone, just trying to decide and get feedback on here........
    i'm leaning towards these guys as they are also more flexible on contracts etc
