    I have very simple needs with a bog standard FTTC connection (FTTP not available) which has been very stable over the last decade.

    Am moving from Plusnet a although current price is reasonable I can't
    stomach the -u4 annual price hike.

    Any first hand experience of onestream?

    For a start their price does not include a router - you pay extra for
    that unless you use your own (which they encourage.)

    Their network is distributed by Openreach. Nuff said?

    They were taken over by a venture capitalist early in January this year.

    Which I already have. Thereby reducing e-waste.

    So is most people's. And?
