Cool stuff, did you pay to get onto the 100mb or is it the "free" upgrade?

[kalleh]

only has 5mbit upload so can assume its a trial or the free upgade for the time being!

[Martin_D]

I upgrade on the phone and i am geting the 100mb for £45/mo

[Martin_D]

[kalleh]

Okay so your paying for 100/10 but only getting 100/5 Makes sense....

[Martin_D]

no coz my 50mb was £45/mo too so

[Jumping]

I thought Uddingston could provide the faster uploads now with the upload going up the other month. Or is it that they would charge more for that?

[Rabb]

thanks for the heads up :) on 100mb.
been on phone now to two diff ppl, who cant seem to help me, who u call 150 ?

[Martin_D]

150/151 from your VM homephone > option 1 to confirm account > option 5 > option 2

[Rabb]

cheers , had tryed 150 twice, they just said area didnt have yet, even after telling them option on there web page. called the 0845 number for new customers , asked them 2 call me back, 10 mins l8r on 100mb package & saving £4 a month as well :) max speed getting is 89mb, new hub cones next thurs :)
again cheers for heads up as uddi area was down for May for 100mb, now just to july for 120mb, cant complain, 50mb=100mb=120mb, -£4 :) :)

[Martin_D]

are you geting 10mb upload

[Rabb]

still on 5mb, can live with that the now :)

[Harryn9000]

it will be july before u get it mate i was on fone for over 30 mins past from department to department to be told, that u have been put on old 50mb service that been upgrade to 100mb without change of upload increase and it will come in july onwards i gonna ring up in may and see if i can get it quicker.

[Gstevie]

Phoned up just there and they guy was great said not sure about area but I said that my neighbour got it no problem and he looked at my area and before he even told me it was done, my router (Apple Time Capsule) had restarted and I was on 100Mb. Said it was free and offered me a superhub but advised the router I had was better and to keep mine. If I wanted one he would send one and if I changed my mind and wanted one just to call. Downloading at full speeds from newsgroups and speed test confirmed! :-)

[jb66]

You only get 10meg upload if your area has been given the double speed uplift

[Gstevie]

Not sure if this is in reply to me. If it is then I know that this wont happen until July time but to be honest that dosent really interest me right now. Fact is a week or so a go I phoned and was told I couldnt have it when others in the same area were getting the download upgrade free and I was told that it was not even in my area. All I did this time was called in and asked the guy to check to see if he could do it for me and he said ohh wait actually I can there you go enjoy. Said if I had a burning desire for a Superhub he would send me one but after telling him what I had he kinda laughed and said then you dont want a Superhub but phone us back if you decide you want one!

The guy was more than happy to let me keep my VMNG300 running with my Apple Time Capsule and I am downloading solid at 12.62MB/s from newsgroups right now.

[Jumping]

Did you get 10mbit upload or stuck on 5? As I think the OP managed to get 10mb upload.

At the moment I am still on 5Mb upload, guy did say I wouldnt get that upgraded till June/July when the speed doubling is supposed to happen and then I would get the 120 bump too.

[Martin_D]

I am in the Uddingston Area and i have the 10mb up now ?

Yep you do.

I never get 10Mb upload in Coventry. I max at 9.something. Is that acceptable for now?

Will VM be aiming for 10:1 after they upgrade each area? eg configuring for 13Mb upload to assure 10Mb.

[Rabb]

bah, im under thu uddi area, went 100mb on the 1st day it became available. the day i installed the superhub, my u/l speed went from the 5mb i had to 2.7mb max.
did u lot just get this when u upgraded or did u call them ?

[Martin_D]

Give this a try

- Access super hub configuration page.
- In the Advanced section select DMZ Host and change the MTU Size from 0 to 1487

[Rabb]
