so far so good with UTV ADSL


So I got my username and password from UTV and setup my ADSL router when I got home but because I'm moving into a new house I haven't had much spare time on the net lately.

All is well and line is operating pretty good, pings are not as good as what I got with my old BT Business line or NTL 3MB service and of course as its a 2MB line its not as good as my old 3MB NTL connection but its a sight better then the 1MB connection I've been using the past 2 months on a temp basis.

Speed tests results ok too (see above), another benefit over other DSL providers is when using UTV's Northern Ireland proxy server on a UTV connection you can use BBC iPlayer which is very handy :)

Good choice with UTV, I'm with them now for 4 years and the unlimited cap is great when the Tv shows start again, only thing is they'll trottle your torrents if you download too much

I've noticed that they seem to throttle ftps/ftp traffic after you download alot too. I've pulled down 7GB in a day only to find they start capping me to about 50k/sec for about a day or two after.

Its no big deal though,
