    Advantages Advantages good connection speeds, good service

    Disadvantages Disadvantages pay for the phone calls

    I used to use Cable & Wireless before I moved across to my free ISP LibertySurf. Out of the pay per call ISP's I used, I found Cable & Wireless to be the best one of the ones that I tried. I always got good connection speeds, around 44k on my 56k modem and I think the reason I didnt get around a 50k connection (what my friends had using the same service) was because of having a non 100% quality phone line. I always managed to connect first time everytime and it always struck me as being pretty quick in terms of downloads. I cant really reccommend it now because the trend is very much in terms ... more

    Advantages Advantages fast connection, good support

    Disadvantages Disadvantages bad email service

If you susbcribe ... more

    Advantages Advantages Fast relaiable free ISP

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Dull site and local 0845 call charges

    I have found that Cable & Wireless Lite is the best free ISP that I have used. The access is fast at all times of day and I never get busy signals. The site content is nothing much once the NTL adverts are out of the way, and you pay for the local rate calls, but it is a good fast realiable service. This high performance might be because it is so hard to discover the sign-on page for registartion. Their technival help by e mail was swift, thorough and very helpful. It made a nice change. The sign on page when you set up an account is excellent. After you have signed on it displays a summary ... more
