Hi slug :-) 

Our company has gone through some major restructuring recently which has 
resulted in us having to scale down and cut costs on our Internet access and 
web site. 

Currently we access the Internet using a 128Kb/s leased line via 1 ISP and 
use another 2 ISPs for web hosting and domain name hosting.
I am trying to consolidate all of this under the one ISP and redesign the web 
site now that it is under the control of IT and not marketing. 

What I require is an ISP that can 

1) provide  2Mb/s ADSL connection
2) web hosting - small, low access site with php/perl
3) domain transfers
4) smtp delivery 

I have looked at a number of ISPs including ones suggested on this mailing 
list and from the guide at www.adslguide.org.uk but the only one that meets 
all the criteria at a reasonable cost is force9.net (plus.net).
I use force9.net for my home account without any problems and they offer so 
much for a reasonable cost:

 2 Mb/s ADSL �110/month
 Fax-2-e-mail, a unique fax number allowing you to receive faxes as e-mail
 CGI, MySQL, PHP, Perl shell, FP2k
 500MB Web space + Web-based Database Admin
 Displays detailed graphical statistics about your Web site
 uncensored newsfeed 
 No NAT 


 If anyone can recommend another ISP that can provide the same functionality   
 at a reasonable cost then I would be grateful. Force9.net may be good for  
 home use but not for business.
