Virgin Media Broadband Size XL

No Virgin Phone line required

This is a full featured fibre-optic broadband package from Virgin Media which doesn't require you to pay line rental for a Virgin Media cable home phone service.

Running at 20Mbps download speed this represents Virgin Media's mid-range broadband deal, but is still many times faster than most ADSL broadband packages which use a BT landline connection.

You'll get a bunch of extras with this deal on top of the great connection speed and reliability, including all of the equipment you'll need to get connected.

Because there's just a 12 month minimum contract, no set up fees and no line rental to pay you'll get the best stripped down, super fast broadband in the UK without any superfluous services.

More about Virgin Media Broadband Size XL

Cable broadband is not for the faint-hearted. Though most people will be eligible for an ADSL broadband connection via their BT landline, those who live in homes which fall under the Virgin Media fibre-optic network should definitely take advantage of the next generation of internet connectivity that they have access to.

This 20Mbps package should leave you confident in the speeds you'll get because unlike ADSL, cable broadband doesn't suffer from any slowdown or dips in speeds because of the cutting edge technology behind it. To put the 20Mbps download speed into terms you'll appreciate, you should be able to download a 5MB music track in less than 2 seconds or a whole film of nearly 2GB in under quarter of an hour.

That means that whether you like streaming videos, downloading music and movies, playing games online or sharing pictures with friends and family you'll be able to do all of it without suffering from a sluggish connection. The faster connection will also ensure that if lots of people in your home are using it at once there won't be as significant and effect on the experience.

With the connection talked up a suitable amount, let's look at the extras that come with this package. First there's the free modem which will let you connect to the internet, coupled with a free wireless N router. The N means that not only is it compatible with the latest Wi-Fi enabled devices, but also that it has a larger range than other free wireless routers, making connecting PCs around your home easier and wire-free.

The final benefit of wireless N technology is the faster transfer speeds for compatible devices. The next freebie that will certainly be a bonus is the 10GB of online storage space that you'll have access to and with V Stuff you'll be able to save and backup all of your most precious and important files and documents to a secure online storage area.

This will protect them in the event that their original forms are corrupted and V Stuff can perform backups automatically to remove any worries. The final benefit of the V Stuff service is that Virgin Media, in partnership with Snap Fish, give customers of this particular service the chance to receive 25 copies of their digital photos printed and sent direct to their door free of charge each month.

That means your pics will no longer just be stuck online but ready to be framed and enjoyed in your home.
