Hi


We are shortly moving into a flat in altima court we've got Virgin broadband at present but have been told we can only get dial up once we move. Can anybody advise on what works well in the building? we mainly use it for watching on demand TV or working from home. Any help would be much appreciated.

I am in Altima Court and work from home. Broadband speeds are not brilliant, I find that downloading stuff from iTunes etc takes forever. I think some work was being done to improve things; but dont expect a 21st century Broadband service.
We've been in Altima Court for a few years now and use BT Broadband, we get a good service and have never had any problems with it. We mainly use it for on-demand television, recording tv, and general internet use. We've never used it for any major online gaming or large regular downloads though, so don't know how that would be affected. I know we have 2 other neighbours with BT aswell as they show up on my newtworks list on my PC. Welcome to the building CD!

If you have a phone line into the place you usually at least should be able to get ADSL broadband over the phone lines, generally speaking unless you live in the middle of now where miles from an exchange you should be able to get broadband of some sort.

Maybe she was confusing dial-up with broadband delivered via phone line as opposed to cable.

    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
    • Sometimes a shed or other installation has to have written approval from the freeholder i.e. Southwark, Southwark has (or did have) a Leaseholder Association.   Could also come under Anti Social Behaviour Unit.
    • Love Dulwich is great but has a large step in front. We have only been weekdays at Lunch time. Maria's next to Picture House is disabled friendly. Also can reserve table in advance. We did a Sunday lunch catch up with family - there were 8 of us.
    • Hi, Thinking about  going with some friends and was just wondering if folk might like to report back please. Most importantly sound level when busy & is it disabled friendly.  Thinking on a Sunday lunchtime but don’t want a busy busy environment or loud chatter - a couple of friends could not cope. Time can be flexible, if that helps - say 2 ish to avoid above.. Thanks…
