Thanks for the information. Tiscali did increase speed not too long ago. I pull out the phone every time I get a call telling me I've won a holiday. Putting the receiver down doesn't cut those callers off. However, I have tried your link and confirmed I ought to be able to get 2Mbps. I am told I am within the range from the exchange, but I cant have SDSL. It is possible from what I can see on the map that because I am close to a border which doesn't have ADSL that might be the reason for decreased speed, but I am continuing to press Tiscali.
