Im going to be upgrading my internet to 1mbit soonish, looking at 2 ISPs, one is Pipex (www.pipex.com) and the other is freedom2surf (www.freedom2surf.com)
they're both pretty much the same except f2s gives a static IP which i'd prefere, but i dont know anyone on them and wanna find out if anyone uses them/knows somene who uses them, and if they're any good (speeds and uptime)

My mum's work office uses f2s and she says they're very good, so i'm kind of stuck

it needs to be good speeds while downloading, and give me a nice ping in games (30ms max tbh)

anyone ?

Comprehensive list of UK Broadband & Dialup ISP's with Reviews.

Anyone have any reviews of 'Eclipse' and 'Vispa'? It's all good seeing graphs between them all, but i'l rather hear some reviews from actual people myself about the reliablity and speed etc...

I use Telus, they are fast for atleast dowloads....

you can get a static ip address with pipex, my friend has them and they are very good.

Telus gives a static IP, 1.5mbps download speed, and 10mb of web-space.

You're in canada right? Im in UK ...

On the pipex site i see nothing about a static IP, and someone i know has them, he doesn't get a static ip

Yes...Canada >_>
But Static IP isn't good if you have a router

yeh my mate has pipex and he doesn't have a static ip either. he also says its rather slow. he has a 1mb connection, but we both agree that my 512kb is faster than his most of the time

hows that ?

Looking at Eclipse now, Vispa are too expensive really, Eclipse look and sound good, but waiting for some reviews
