Hi all,


Just wanted to say phoned NTL earlier,to pay the bill Boo!! [img]Download Failed (1)[/img]
and while i was paying i thought i'd ask about the upgrades..

I receive TV and BB through the Samsung STB. (no probs to report with this box much better than the pace ones imho) and i was under the impression from this site and others,that the STB upgrades were going to be automatic.

so anyway paid said bill and asked about the upgrade and was told it will be an automatic upgrade, but as i was on the line he would do it then for me.
also told me after i would have to re-register through the ntl start page again, for the changes to take effect. Therefore the re-registering is to basically say you agree to the new caps and conditions etc.

Now the one question i have for you people is does this mean a whole new 12 month contract? or just what i was told? to confirm i/we accept the new caps and conditions.

It all went really smoothly (Honest) so koudos to NTL and the v helpful person who dealt with me,and this was the only thing i wasn't sure of. [img]Download Failed (1)[/img]

Oh and im in Stockport SK8 if that helps any of you STB's to get upgraded with a phone call.. Gl all [img]Download Failed (1)[/img]

many thanx

Dammit, I was hoping to keep the speed increase a secret from everybody in my area :P Don't want you all sucking up the bandwith now do I !

Re: New Speed Upgrades 8th March. (Part 4)
 

I'm in SK8 too. Did you actually have to re-register after the stb had been sent the new config? I didn't and seem to be the only person on here so far who hasn't had to do it. Not that I'm complaining, just a bit confused.

speed upgrade not working?
 

yesterday i went to the webpage to upgrade my modem to 2mbps. I entered my username and password. all seemed fine. shortly after, i reset my modem (surfboard 4100) and checked it to see if there was any difference. nothing new. no superast speed upgrade. so i checked the cablemodem logs:

Retrieved TFTP Config mota4100-silver.cm SUCCESS

ok. it may take a few hours to kick in, i guessed.
it is now 27 hours later, and no matter how many times i reboot the modem, it still picks up the silver config file. chatting to my mate, he said the new 2mb config filename is something like mota-mid.cm and his worked fine.

just chatting to another mate, and he is having the same problem as me. he is using a surfboard 3100 (same as my other mate who successfully upgraded). he is also picking up the silver config file.

anyone got any suggestions on what to do? (other than phone the helpdesk, which i'll do when i get home from work tomorrow if i get time)

cheers,

wanye.
