You can get 8Mb/s from most ADSL providers these days, for the same
price that Telewest charge for 2Mb/s, and with faster upload speeds,
too. Plus it means you don't have to deal with Blue Yonder's service.

A few providers are also offering ADSL2 at 20Mb/s+ these days, too.
Beware UK Online, though, who block ports 25, 80, 8080 and 3128 on
their high speed service.
