WebTapestry based in Manchester are my current supplier, they are not
the cheapest but they have a good service and no messing about with
proxies, filters and is really unlimited.

Now granted I am FTTC so I get a good fast connection to start with but
I will normally get 3+MB/s from decently connected servers, peaking at
line speed of about 4.2MB/s, FTTC also gives you 10Mbit/s upstream which
is very helpful for photographers uploading or running servers in your
basement as well as general remote access to "stuff at home"
