Yet the "Anytime" service continues to perform well. So far I've had
only one short period when I couldn't connect, (about half an hour)
and there has been no problems since.

I guess this will eventually happen to Anytime as well, unless they
upgrade first. So far Freeserve have proved to be pretty reliable.
Incidentally, should anyone using Freeserve and an Amiga find that
their browser can't access the online help/information page, just type in:

to get straight to it :)
