Hey guys. As some of you may know from my blog entry last summer, I am running a "3 Mobile Broadband" dongle which is surprisingly fast and stable. I rarely have any disconnects and the speed averages 120kbps.

What type of connection do you have, and what speed is it averaging?

we are on 24meg broadband with talktalk which is basically aol there the same company and it usually averages 20 meg to the 24 meg because we are close to the exchange unit so it stays at top speeds most of the time

well it takes about 1 hour to 2 hours depending on how many people are downloading at same time in house nd a music file takes around 40 to 50 seconds and an music album takes around 1.50 to 2 mins

There's no such thing as an 8gb provider in the UK. Not for public usage anyway.
