Clearly you have never visited general.....

Yes I have, Which is where I would expect smart a$$ replies, but when you want genuine help....... I forgot how the clique geeks get, lol! I am getting good answers elsewhere, I am sure the owners are happy the way people get treated on here, lol!!

The response you got seemed helpful to me. I have had lots of useful responses from general as well.

At the moment there seem to be a few in the professional forums who get upset when they don't like the response they get. Not very nice when people are trying to help.

I listen to all advice then take the advice I want to here.

I always think those who talk about cliques *tend* to have troubles getting on with other.

On the other hand, I know there is a CUK clique and I was black-balled from joining. In fact, when they emptied the bag with the balls in, it looked like the bottom of a rabbit's cage.....

Move home or go Dial up was a helpful response?

"I always think those who talk about cliques *tend* to have troubles getting on with other." Your opinion, i respect that, its b0llox, but I respect it, hehe

There were at least 2 other suggestions. I get the feeling you read the first line of my post and no further?

The most important bit - if you don't like a response just ignore it. Cojak is incredibly good at this - most of us need to do better....

Why is your broadband bad? Because you live in the middle of nowhere or just a poor provider?

That said it's all the same infrastructure isn't it?

It's just where I am, everyone in the building has bad speeds, all with different providers. Hyperoptic is going to be installing here, so up to 1GB speeds, but that could be up to a year away...

What is it you do, and what speed to you need?

I've managed to work from home before with < 512k (normally around 300k) so it is perfectly possible as long as you are careful about your use.

You also got -

1. Rent an office/desk space with broadband from me

2. Satellite broadband from Brillo

I was thinking of something else but then I remembered BT don't install those lines anymore.

I am also aware some people in parts of large cities as well as those in rural locations have crap broadband.

Oh Brillo and I aren't in any clique. Though I have got round to overtly calling an insensitive a-hole yet.

I am a Civil 3D modeller, so will be connecting to servers opening and saving large 3D models
