I googled it and went for one with decent reviews.
They must be made up because the UI is w**k. It's broken a few times and there's no VPN like promised. It's £60 per year and I was setup in seconds after paying tbf.
I went BT 500 fibre, their basic TV (with a basic Netflix/ Now TV etc)
Pay £65 pm (I added £5 for the landline which is getting sacked off as it's a pay monthly add on).
The BT/EE box/ UI is s**t compared to Sky though so be warned.
Sky pissed me off when I cancelled the TV package (BT had...
Nah, all the high skill players play in VPN lobbies against bots.
I'm absolutely shocking and I get put in with CDL players who pass me around like currency 😂
I never get a fast charging notification on my S22U regardless of what I'm using to charge it (even though it's selected in the options).
The Huawei used to tell me it was super fast charging.
@sUpErShOoTeRs 46 turns out the flat cable I have, although no marks on it, is s**t. Who'd have guessed....
I think it's that which is limiting my speed anyway. Only getting 98mb download to the router then to other wired devices, unless it takes a while to bring the speeds up to 500?
I've...
How the f**k do I tell that if I've already got a long one 🤣
It's only going to the PS5. At the moment everything else will be WiFi until I get a mesh system which will then hopefully go through WiFi and cables if the boxes have ports.
Right. Quick one for you IT guys as I didn't know where else to put this...
Getting fibre put into the house tomorrow. Currently we have a sky router and a phone line to it from the phone in socket. As the router is in the middle of the house, we're using an extension cable under the carpet to...
Simple FTW.
One page only too. Can't be doing with swiping and folders.
Tap settings for quick access to different apps and I occasionally use the side bar when I remember about it.
Might buy an icon pack so I can have the icons one colour.
Mines not too bad but I'm not on it that much tbh.
Edit.
A quick Google suggests the slim comes with 1tb of memory instead of 850gb so you get a bit more from the off and you can add a blue ray drive to the side if you wanted to.
Smaller console with smaller fans but it doesn't effect...
Nice. I've got one of those for the living room to connect the TV and Sky box via a plug extender. I'll just grab another for the bedroom if WiFi isn't strong enough.
I'll see how the new BT setup is in a few weeks when it gets installed before deciding how many I need to buy.
The slim is the newer one. Not sure if it changed memory at all, I'd have to check in a bit against the older ones.
I think that you can add a disk drive to those if you wanted to in the future, again not 100% certain.
I’m looking at a mesh system so I can bin off my plug extenders.
Do they all have LAN sockets with them or are they WiFi only?
My router is in the dining room which is in the middle of the bungalow and I want good coverage to the front and rear of it so I’m thinking a 3 pack. One plugs into...
Depends how you want to buy the games. I think a lot of people still sell them on, if you’re not arsed about that then just get the digital and delete/ reinstall if you want to play again.
I don’t think the games take up that much more space than with a disk, but don’t quote me on it.
You...
Wife just went to try and do it in her name but because she's put our home number in, it's linked it to my account and said the offer isn't valid.
This was the offer.
They are "offering" me slower fibre only for more than the whole package 🤣
I can get BT for £60 with 500mb with TV...
Just phoned to see what they can do.
The very best they can do is apply all discounts and it'll beore expensive than their automatic renewal quote.
Said I'd just cancel once I've got new BB in place and she said if that's what you want to do then do it because there's nothing else I can do🤣...
Very similar toy quote from Churchill.
They said they couldn't price match, told them they were £50 cheaper online, oh yeah we can prove match that but not Aviva who were £222.
"Guess I'll go with them then."
"Yes, probably best. You're not on auto renewal so it'll just lapse"
Didn't even...
Apart from screen protects not fitting correctly, cases not protecting the edge like on flat screens, accidental touch (still a thing on my S22U)
Literally no point in having the extra 2mm of screen width for a curve IMO.
Peak design doesn't necessarily make it a good thing.
We haven't got 5g around here yet on any network.
Going to speak to Sky tomorrow and see what they can do their fiber 500 at, if not I'll go with Plusnet.
What mesh set-up did you get ?
I'm currently looking at new internet suppliers and something like this instead of the plug in extenders we currently have.
Deal: Mercusys AX1800 Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi 6 System, Coverage up to 6,000 ft² (550 m²), Connect up to 150 Devices, 1024-QAM, Full Gigabit...
I'm due to finish with sky mid Feb.
Trying to remove Sports off my package online is proving difficult. I think I'm going to have to spend an hour on the phone tomorrow trying to negotiate. I also want to up my broadband to fiber but their "offers" are f**king ridiculous if you are an existing...
