Most things are cheaper than BT.

Call charges only come into play if you go over the hour or if they're chargeable numbers. I agree with you, though, that a contract is a contract. Unfortunately they don't advertise the contract I signed up for any more, even though it was only a couple of months ago, so I can't see whether the price of phone calls and line rental was mentioned at all. I doubt it. As far as I can remember it just said broadband, TV and 24/7 calls.

The package price changes every so often anyway. I got an 18 month contract for £10.50 for the first 12 (I think) months and then £15.50. My cousin phoned to complain about a price she was offered because it was higher and she's ended up paying something like £5 for 12 months. She managed to speak to someone in England and pulled the "I'm a poor pensioner" routine!

Phil&Shell. Just an update. I tried the laptop in the summerhouse in the garden using the tt router. Its about 75feet away. I can tell you it didn't work. Looks like I am going to have to give BTTB suggestion and try the bt router. Sorry for sort of hijacking your thread, but hope some of the advice was helpful. Geoff

Did the BT router work previously? 75 feet might be a stretch depending on how many walls it has to go through, what they are made of, and what else is happening on your network.

I have a couple of BT routers here, and they would not get to the garden very well when positioned at the primary phone socket just inside the front door.

The fix for me, believe it or not was not to move the router, but to move the central laptop which had the music streamer to the back wall of the house.

It was a party we had, and I thought that the music streaming problems were just outside. But when I came inside, I heard the lounge box stutter briefly. After moving the laptop to line of sight with the router and no walls, all was fine in the garden and lounge. I guess that the laptop position was causing a lot of error checking, and slowing whole lot down streaming music to a number of different devices around the house and garden.

Good luck with the test tomorrow.
