I don't know why you spent 18 months in the slow lane. I've had digital region FTTC for 18 months in Stannington!

BT fibre-to-the-cabinet rollout penetrates 73 more exchanges
Vodafone pledges fix for Snow Leopard 3G modem woes

Unbelievable.
Even if there's just 10 users who use a platform, if the Vodafone network believe they can support OSX as a platform for their devices to work on, they should get a bloody move on and fix it. This is ridiculous.
Still, another alternative ... spare mobile + Bluetooth + Modem Script.
Average UK broadband just over half advertised speed

Hm. Average of what?
Where I live, the exchange is 4.9KM away and i'm on the boundary of Sheffield.
The max speed I get is 1.1MBit a sec and BT say I should get 2, although i'm on Sky and the max they can thrown down the line is 1.4 and it falls over all the time.
So, besides waiting for FTTC, I get the feeling the area which I live in is going to have slow ADSL for a while to come, with no choice as we get hardly any 3G signal and no cable.
