Ray,

Seriously I download an average of 10GB of tv episodes per week over Fastlane with Netway - yes we watch a lot of TV! I have had no issues with being throttled, cut off, blocked or anything else........

Ah, but you are in beautiful downtown Nicosia, my friend.

Cyprus might not look that big on the map, but if you live outside of central Nicosia or central Limassol you might as well be in the middle of the Sahara!

I know where you are coming from, used to live in Dali and had to settle for I(havenno)-choice. Bittorrents were not an option....

My purpose in putting up this post was not to find a better service – I'm not that delusional. But rather, to give everybody who, like me, worries themselves sick about the atrociously slow service we get in Cyprus a glimmer of hope. This lass Viviane Reding has in the past dismantled the monopolies that used to stranglehold parts of Europe over mobile phone charges. She's not some pussycat – she gets results.

I don't seriously believe that anything will improve in Cyprus until the corruption at the heart of CYTA has been eliminated. And that will either take decades or somebody with a very big stick and the will to use it – like dear Viviane.
