Hi all!!
Just received mac code from o2 (access:)), and im thinking to join IDNet ... just one question: does IDNet provide wireless router or do i have to purchase one myself if i do then which one would you recommend ?

Hoping that after migrating am gonna be positively shocked with browsing speeds ( router exchange synchro on o2 was over 8000)
cannot wait to migrate :D

Hi Marcin :welc: :karma: IDNet do not supply a router with the service, but they do sell Netgear routers. Others here use Speedtouch and 2Wire routers amongst others.

Good morning
Since yesterday morning im proper idnetter... so far gooood... just struggling with freezing netgear router :(... but thats not idnet fault
After misery with o2 i was able to have i chat via skype with my mother last night :))) Happy :D
Are floating speeds normal during 10 days training period ??
on the end just my stats:

ADSL Link     Downstream     Upstream
Connection Speed 8128 kbps     448 kbps
Line Attenuation     12.0 db     5.5 db
Noise Margin     10.9 db     20.0 db

I take it you can't get WBC yet? As you're syncing at 8128 with a 10.9db noise margin, your line will be able to go much faster on ADSL2+, probably around 18Mb.

Well, you should at least have a rock steady line, with a throughput in the region of 6.8M.
