I have just had an offer accepted on a house! My current place is in a very urban area but the new one is in a more rural area (but not too rural).
I am sad enough to have checked how close the nearest exchange is to my new house and its less than 1 mile. Should I expect good speeds due to low contention or worse speeds due to potentially older equipment? I know that the exchange does not offer any LLU services or anything like that. To give you an idea of how rural it is type "millisons wood solihull" into google maps and click sattelite or hybrid view. Its not far from major towns/cities and does have its own exchange..
Just curious if anyone has been in the same position and had an improvment/degradation in performance (i play a lot of online games!).
Oh and i have the misfortune of being with PIPEX! I started with them 3+ years ago and am stuck with them till october due to upgrading and not being told this commits me to a new 1yr contract.
