Just a little link for those that say NTL is falling seriously behind in the supply of broadband. How many times have we heard that 3Mb from NTL is not enough with ADSL giving up to 8Mb. The BT trials for their MAX services will not start until April and will only involve 2,000 lines with a select number of ISPs at a limited number of exchanges. If all goes well with the trial then above 2Mb may be available in something like 6 months time. There is an article at http://www.adslguide.org.uk/ that gives some details of the trials. One point to note though is
Quote:
BT Wholesale has also warned service providers to inform customers that data throughput may at peak times drop down to similar levels as you would expect on a 2Mbps service.
So if the trials are successful and if you live close enough to the exchange you may be able to get up to 8Mb/s but possibly only 2Mb/s at peak times.

So, who is falling behind? With NTL above 2Mb/s is happening now not a possiblity in 6 months time.

I used this link:

http://www.ntlworld.com/data-feeds/e...tierMigration/

to do the free upgrade from 750K to 2MB.

Did the whole thing in about 2 minutes.
1m 30s of that was try to remember my password :D

I'm an early adopter.
I bought a Motorola SB4100 SurfBoard for £150 (some years back now).
My CM access is still charged at £20 per month. :cool:

Oh, one more thing. Some people here need to stop whinging and show some respect for the NTL respesentatives here.

I think some people need to learn to use the search facility and stop repeating what people said 36 hours ago!

patience is a virtue....

ntl did say that the upgrades would be in Q1 2005 and that period is not yet over....

Users will be upgraded automatically in the near future, so why not just wait for this? Ntl will inform you before this takes place.
