Sir_smooch Posted September 15, 2015 Author Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hi Smooch - welcome to the forum and great to hear from you. I'm expecting my first sprog in March - any advice?! Ha Wow advice.......On parenting, lol where do I start? Tbh parenting is tough but an amazing experience! One big thing is, i don't really think it ever gets any easier, even when they get older lol. Just new challenges arise. Obviously early on lack of sleep can be a factor if your doing any of the night feeds but hopefully after a couple or few mnths if your lucky with your child and have a relaxed atmosphere and manor then with any luck the baby will start to sleep through. But children are one of the best ways to learn things about yourself in my opinion. But most of all as i was advised when having my first, just take it all in, enjoy each stage of your child's life because time sure does fly! And thats about it, like most things the better the support around you the easier things are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome aboard Thanks dude. I have had a few different providers. Some faster some less so, non fibre and fibre but have ended up at talk talk literally becasue they were the cheapest at the time and there router seemed quite well equipped with the hg635 although disappointed that it doesn't have a modem only mode like the virgin or sky one. I would have preffered a little more than the 1-1.5mb upload but still beggars can't be choosers . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zennon Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I used to be on their ADSL package before I moved to fibre and as long as you have their LLU equipment in your exchange your on to a winner no congestion and low pings Yeah I use a separate modem , the tt modem/router only left its box while the engineer was here testing the connection. I said " As soon as your gone thats going in the bin " he laughed and said " I dont blame you haha" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_smooch Posted September 15, 2015 Author Share Posted September 15, 2015 I used to be on their ADSL package before I moved to fibre and as long as you have their LLU equipment in your exchange your on to a winner no congestion and low ping! This is my first time with them and only on the medium package download speed is pretty good tbh upload could be better but is capped i think for package price, as large package gets 20 up i think. I don't suppose you know if there is a way to find out if my exchange has there LLU equipment at all please? My games have improved overall for sure and i love everything netduma stands for. Funnily enough though i have had 2 games where everything seemed almost perfect hit detection spot on very crisp and snappy but i kicked halfway through both games. All my other games are deffo better than no netduma! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it not 10mb up on the standard package? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
