How have I not seen that before?
That might be it.
Incidentally I will be losing my shoelace in January as Plusnet have informed me yesterday that they are discontinuing their dial up service. BT are being a bit more helpful this time round though & are going to be unplugging a lot of cables & plugging them back into different sockets by the sound of things & if all goes well I *might* be able to get broadband with a download speed of up to 57k in time for Christmas. Woohoo!

Woohoo!
Fingers crossed for you :)
I feel sad for your computer, which will surely miss the companionship of being able to phone its compatriot at Plusnet and sing it little computer songs.

Wait what now? V92 has been reclassified as broadband?
Your plight boggles me. Do you have a mobile phone? Get a smartphone on a Giff Gaff contract for about a tenner a month and you can just tether to your phone for go-anywhere interwebs. There might be a data cap but it'll still be much more than you could manage on dialup. Then you can tell BT where to stick it.
