Re: speed of your broadband?

Anyone interested in tips ,advice on getting best adsl speed out of a line?
Sometimes just repositioning the router or correct filtering can improve things by a couple of meg .
If you only have one main socket and no extensions there is nothing much you can do tho .

Re: PnP Mk II - Here it is!

Works great Dave! Just installed XAPFlash on it along with your stuff. You Tube videos and squeezeplayer work well. @ Pete_c , hi Pete how did you put XAPFlash on to PnP II ? I fancy installing it along with the rest just to have a look :) , might even spur me on to do something with it ... Cheers
