    Connections

    Hi,
    Can you get a 10MB broadband connection?
    If so does anyone know who is the best?

    Thanks

    Let me guess.. you are looking to host a server with your broadband connection. The server relys on the upstream which isn't much larger than 5mbits on any connection.

    The best is *not* to even host any servers at your home. Those data centers just buy bandwidth in bulk and make Gigabit commits as a result. Don't even think about hosting servers at your house and selling hosting on them. that's just about the worst anyone can do.

    Do you know how slow your internet connection will be after a while, you will
    max out all your bandwidth. The Planet spend many hundreds of thousands a month.

    That's not 2MB up, that's down.

    Unlimited does not exist. Your isp means unmetered. You will have X Mbit upload and you can use them 100% 24 hours per day.
