Everything went swimmingly...

I got home tonight and my BT ADSL was down.
Looked at my Sky BB letter again and realised that it was all going to change today! oops- thought it was tomorrow.
So, I had no broadband.

Unwrapped my sky digi/wifi box and plugged it up and... nothing. Right, thought I, letters and emails at the ready.

Meanwhile (about 47 seconds later) the router trained and we're up and running! I've gone from £30 a month on 8Mb/sec on BT, that never got above 800Kb/sec to 11Mb/sec (all via thinkbroadband.com) and for a tenner a month.

As far as smooth transfers, and value for money, it don't get much better than this!
Skot.

I'm very pleased for you - I suggest you purchase some goggles similar to those one would use on a motorbike - that's quite a speed increase!!!!!! :-)
