That article about the BT socket is an interesting one. So who will be the first company to produce a cheaper version?
Yea… My dad discovered it lol. It will be interesting to see if it works… I daresay BT will have patented it, at least in the UK if it’s taken them so long to develop. I don’t think a tenner is too bad for something which enhances your connection as much as they say it does.
I think it’s a quick fix though, doesn’t really address the problem. The future of our broadband seems to rest on Virgin Media at the moment

I think the BT socket thing has been used by commercial companies and so was only available to high paying customers and is now being released to the public. Don’t quote me on that though!
