Hi there

We currently have a 1.5Mb/256K ADSL connection with Netspace. When I
enquired as to what would be the next step up to a faster connection I
was told that in our area it was not possible to get anything faster.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what we should do to improve our
speed - should we change to a different provider or a different type of
access?

Hi Lorraine,

You've heard Helen Coonan - you don't need extra speed!  ;-)

Bruce's suggestion is quite right - check out Whirlpool. You'll have the
advantage that as a private school, you're not restricted to the four
Department mandated ISPs - Netspace, MyInternet, Brightsparks and
Connexus.

Cheers,
Clarky
