kobiak: brucie44, how is your international speed with snap? during the FS time.
and to what servers.

thanks.


100KB to states at 7pm  building to 250KB at midnight.   
best thing is unlimited volume for bigger volumes. Also this suits  my budget.       
If only a few gigs a month, might not be the best plan. 
I am happy as subscrbe to a stateside usenet server.

Buddy says if have more than two ISPs in a year, you is internet slapper !   

regards, Bruce.

  Snap have been fully subscribed for Nightowl plan.  They are now not accepting any new users to this plan. Friend rung to join, and was offered other accounts.    
  Still happy with my Nightowl account.  :)

at $69.95 and 25GB limit, it  does not have the attraction of a Night owl account.     
Think Snap  have managed Nightowl well,  by limiting the number of suscribers. 
Impressed by helpdesk.     

Do you work for Snap  ?   :)         

regards, Bruce.

they might limited the number of users... but international speed is awfull for a week.

connection to site drops, huge pocket loses :(

even national speed is around 1mbit - which is nonsence :(
