Mine is running great now, got my router set up again. it seemed to just come on by itself. I had to tinker a little bit so couldn't explain what i done to get it working. Tec bloke that come out to fit the modem didn't help much but he did offer to call round if i needed him. getting 9mb on the hard wired desktop and only 5-6 on the wireless laptop. My question is.. with the laptop being wireless, is that why it only gets 5-6mb. i use a USB dongle which came with my router, i read that usb can only reach certain speeds so would a pccard be better than the usb? In all honesty 5-6 is fine but i am just curious.

I'm from Bradford and am still waiting.

Come On Virgin!

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Indeed - does seem to be a more consistent speed since rebooting the modem this morning :tu:

St Helens (WA9) here still waiting - I had a feeling it would be at the tailend of summer before we were upgraded, but I didn't expect us to really be one of the last to get the upgrade - I'm hoping it'll reduce the lag issues on xbox live

Like others here I waited in line for my 4 meg connection to be upgraded to 10 meg. When it happened, I had a cracking 9860 kb/s download for a week or so. Now I consistently get 1900 kb/s or thereabouts. The max downstream data rate in op config is 2048000 which looks like 2 meg to me? Shouldn't this be 10240000 after the upgrade? Thanks.

go into http//192.168.100.1 and post your operation config.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Hmm. I have no lag issues and I'm on 4mb.

I had no issues when I was on 1mb with Tiscalli neither. It might be something else.

That shows settings for a 2MBit connection

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Thought so. Something's gone awry in the upgrade process. I'll contact VM. Thanks to all for your help :) .

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

When does the upgrade period end?

I'm assuming it's by the end of September.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Didn't VM say the end of Summer? It's nearly gone and we're still waiting here in Bradford.
