I haven't used BT Total Broadband so I can't fully comment, my previous ISP was AOL, but this was using ADSL from BT Wholesale (who sell IIRC provide broadband to BT Retail anyway). In comparison to AOL it was MUCH better. For the same monthly rental I had 4 times higher speeds. > How smooth was the transition from BT? My transition from AOL was seamless, it went over the day they said. > Did they give you your "BT Mac Code" without any hassle? Can't comment on that being an ex AOL customer. > How long were you left without a broadband connection? When I migrated it went over on the day, I was at work when it happened, all I did was setup the new username and password which was provided by Enta the night before, when I came back from work it was ready. I think the transfer is pretty quick. > Do I need to buy a new router and if so what? I think you'll find the existing router will work. I've had a play with a BT Voyager router and it gives you the option of entering a different username and password, it certainly doesn't appear to be locked into BT Total Broadband. > Does anyone have any problems with Vivacity? Nope, no problems yet. I've been with them since March this year. Rob -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
