I've just been offered thisfree with my mobile contract. Anybody else here got it, and is it any good?

it's as good as any other non BT broadband. There were a few problems at first, but it's mostly sorted now.

I'm on it too, having originally been on their wireless and talk package.

Never had a problem with it. Only 2 meg, which is not a problem for me but may be for you if you're inot monster downloads.

Was amused to get a phone call earlier this week from Orange offering me an upgrade to wireless and talk.....

I'm on orange with a livebox, was previously Wanadoo, then Freeserve before that, broadband and dial up going back to '97.

It's just there, like the sky and my housebricks, only had one issue when the broadband box got spiked during a thunderstorm, they sent another out rightaway, no charge.

Is that a 2 meg cap, or 2 meg speed?

Both, but I regularly exceed the cap and have never been pulled for it. I do not, however, take the pith. Worst was 2.5 meg one month.
