    Hi All,

    I may have to change provider soon to a wireless option, and I am considering Digiweb Metro Home 8MB. We would be transferring from BT and would like to keep our phone number. I have some questions I hope someone here can answer for me:

    1) I have read some reports of poor speed from the 3 Rock transmitter. Is this still the case or is performance generally OK?

    2) I know that I have to buy a separate router for wireless access in my house. Can I run a second or third phone off this also? If so, what makes/models should I look at?

    3) How long does it take to get this setup?

    4) Should I consider other, similar providers?

    Thanks....

    all U can get from Digiweb is cable modem with one computer connection and 2 telephone lines, which only one is active, 2nd one cost 6 euro/ month extra, whatever U going to connected to the modem; router, VoIP gateway etc is up to your self
