Seems a little expensive. We're currently quoting around 2-3k install and 6-7k per year for a 10Mb service. For a 100Mb you're looking at 12-15k.

@Sean

Is ADSL(LLU)/Cable coverage available in your area and good speed available in regards to ADSL?

@ otested

I have one of our ADSL2+ services myself. I get around 16Mb/1Mb sync and speed tests of between 6Mb to 14Mb depending on the time of day.

We have UK coverage of LLU 2+ via approx. 1000 exchanges, plus BT exchanges.
