Transfer due to complete on 20th of June
Posted: Thu Jun 09, 2016 2:13 pm
Hello all,
Two days ago I received an email and text message from BT, confirming I would leave them on the 20th of June. Never had any issues with BT, but they were not able to compete on price. 21 pounds vs 63 pounds monthly spend for all inclusive incl. international calls. They offered to drop the price to 53 pounds. I told them I would be back if SSE does not live up to their promises...
Today I received the SSE modem/router. I fired it up and connected to it via ethernet no problem. Managed to set up the home network and DHCP address range no problem. Already assigned static IP-addresses to the various devices that will connect to it once it is up and running, so hopefully it will just be a question of swapping cables from one box to another on the day itself..
I have not received any welcome pack yet, but there are still 11 days to go.
I have been keeping a log of my current internet speeds here http://discussisp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=49, mostly as a reference so I can compare once I have switched.
One question though: does SSE offer static IPs?
Keep you posted..
