http://www.cyprusbroadband.net/cablenet.html bit expenssive though even the 4mbit is £95 a month but i like the uploads! and its not available in my village either lol

i have cytanet and they suck 1Mbit with a crappy 128k upload i havent
had this bad internet in years.

Package Name Max Speed Down/Up Static IPs Installation Fee Monthly Fee

That cablenet link has 10mbits for £199 a month... Thats £230GBP. A year ago I was paying a £25GBP a month for that. On cable, so same equipment you would have thought.... Loving the long term fixed pricing for internet over here...

Didn't someone say that Cytanet were going to increase their speeds this summer? Ho hum...

I remember paying £55 a month for 512kb a few years ago in the UK.
so hopefully Cyprus prices will come down over the next few years

Nah, my cable connection eventually got to 1mbit upload. Then I moved a few months later.

A close friend of mine who works for CYTA mentioned this to me. However, i wouldnt expect any increase in internet speed until some time after summer.
