I am considering using Telewest as my ISP. I want to know how standard the system is.
Do you use a normal modem or router, or must you use one which Telewest provide?
Does the quality of their service vary depending on the cable infrastructure in your area? (Old Cabling=sometimes poor, New Cabling=never have any trouble.)
Can you use them as an ISP without switching to their phone or TV service? (Just use them as an ISP?)
You need a cable modem (provided by Virgin Media) but in a non cable area they do have an ADSL service.
I am on their 20 Meg service and been on broadband since 2001 with Telewest and never had a problem. I would think most of their cabling is less than 20 years old.
You can have just the broadband. I do.
