Advice needed on Broadband
 
Ive been asking around everywhere and its a simple question but no-one seems to know the answer.

I currently have a 512Mb Broadband connection with one of those Alcatel Speedtouch ADSL external USB modems. I want to upgrade my connection to 1 Meg and was wondering if I need another modem or whether my existing modem will support the 1 Meg connection.

I thought as long as you had an 'ADSL' modem, no matter what speed the connection was it would support it because its ADSL. Is this right or not?

Your existing modem should support the faster service. May need a little tweaking but should be ok. Check the Alcatel website for full spec on your modem.

yep should be fine, who are you getting 1mb with? I currently get it from bulldog and can recommend it.

Perran - thanks for the advice - dont know why I didnt look at speedtouchs website before. My modem can cope with up to 8Gb so its the connection only package for me :)

Jr - I was just thinking of going with Wanadoo (simply for less fuss - existing Freeserve customer) but now thinking I might give these Zen geezers a look at ....
