This website is my 'play' site for testing and trying
out new web technologies and hosting
various bits and bobs! I hope you find the information and tips
useful...
Most popular ADSL pages:
Improving Broadband Speed
Understanding and improving the speed of your internet connection.
Losing internet connection in the evening on ADSL Max
Changing your ADSL router to improve your connection with low SNR.
Broadband Speed Test
Simple broadband speed test to see how your connection is performing.
BT IP Profile table (BRAS - Broadband Remote Access Server)
A table showing BT's IP Profile / Line connection speed thresholds.
Checking the status of your Freeola/EntaNet
Broadband 'IPSC Node'
Shows the ADSL IPSC Node you are connected to and the status of all nodes.
Other popular non-broadband pages:
Mapping - find longitude and latitude
coordinates
Finding map coordinates in longitude and latitude in the right
format for using in map 'mashups' (dynamic maps embedded
in a web page) can be tricky. This page lets you click a
zoomable/scrollable map to show you accurate coordinates
for you to use in your map page.
Update: Convert UK Postcode or Place
name to longitude/latitude
Watching TV using the internet - online 'catchup' programs...
Streaming free TV
using your broadband connection
Catchup TV - BBC(iPlayer) ITV ITV2 ITV3 ITV4 CITV CHANNEL 4 FIVE
FIVER FIVE USA
Search the BBC
iPlayer forums for all your
iPlayer problems
and questions.
 My
Google Custom Search
Engine, has been set up to search Freeola's
Chat Forums. The forum pages are well indexed by Google but didn't
have their own search facility so this was a simple solution to allowing
the forum to be searched.
 This website is hosted using free web space available from
www.freeola.com but
their paid for domains (which I have over 100) will function the same.
When picking a hosting company in the UK it's worth
looking to see where the companies servers are physically hosted. When
someone uses a Search Engine and clicks the "pages from the UK"
option then if your co.uk website isn't physically in the UK you may not
get displayed!
