Then it could be acccused of monitoring your usage - would you trust it?!

Well my equipment is giving me the results from another customers connection!

Logging in to the samknows site and checking the stats shows me a bunch of results from the past week and an IP that is different to mine.

The only thing that is correct is my name... :rolleyes:

Just had an email through saying do I want to do the trial, about time :D

Hopefully the new equipment won't be long coming.

Received my ugly silver box today :D
A breeze to plug in. :)

Well received my unit today, and it is staying in the box, as I do not have any spare power sockets available that are on 24/7 as the only spare one is on an intelligent plug strip which switches off when the PC is not on.

Had not realised you needed power, so requested they come and pick it up.

I don't leave mine on 24/7. It gets turned off at night when we go to bed along with the modem and router.

Has anyone had any issues regarding the device? Since incorportating the router into my LAN setup, Ive been unable to play World of Warcraft. The game gets laggier and laggier until I disconnect. Yet if I take the supplied "router" out, it plays perfectly normally.

Same here, my computers have always been on 24/7, have been for many years, never had any problems or hardware failures :D

No news for me either.

What email address did you receive your confirmation from as it may have been filtered by my spam filter.

if we can't say if we are on the trial or not

for example then: if i am on 20mb now and increase to 50mb on 22Aug will this mean i need a new trial router ?

Maybe that is something you should ask the people running the trial! - which no one here does ;)

Hello there,

Thanks for volunteering to take part in the Virgin Media Broadband Trial. Unfortunately on this occasion all the triallist slots have now gone.

Please keep an eye out for future trials, as we hope you’ll apply again!

Once again, thanks for volunteering.
