Hi

I currently have an ADSL connection which is pretty unreliable being miles from the exchange

Our street is Virgin cabled but Ive never felt the deals on offer are that good but we will be getting BT infinity next month which presumably opens up other operators as well piggybacking the line?

Question is who else uses the BT infinity?
It looks like Zen do but at higher cost, anyone know if Sky or EE will use BT too as being a customer of each I could probably get a deal with them for the whole lot of telecomms we have

Finally experiences of any current BT infinity users would be welcome
Virgin here seems patchy from the neighbours experience, mind you my ADSL is that rubbish anything would be an improvement

Cheers

I've had infinity for over a year and not had a problem with it. I've had to reset the router a few times, but very rarely.

My only bugbear is the homehub's lack of compatibility with airport express.

Ahhhh

Currently using an Airport Extreme plugged into my ADSL modem with an AIrport Express upstairs

Surely if I go with BT then I can just connect the Home Hub to my Airport and disable the BT wifi bits?

You can get BT infinity through plusnet for less money I believe. We get 75meg down 17 meg up with a 250 gig limit for £20 a month. Plusnet supply a boxed retail router. Ours is a netgear but they may have changed since we signed up.
Always been very happy with their CS as well

Maybe. I trie o use mine and hit problems. The comments on google looked discouraging, and i wasn't that bothered so gave up. Someone more technical than I may get it to work.

EE use BT lines so you will at least have that option. I think they do discounts for existing customers and they also cover some buyout costs if you're still in contract.
