Terry? Thats a silly name for a modem.... Surely Malcolm the Modem is much better :disturbd::confused::rolleyes::pp

Re: I connect to Broadband through a...?
 

STB for me. I went for that as I already had DTV and was desperate for a working BB connection as BT couldn't fix the fault on my DSL.

Beings as I already had crossover cable and my Mac had an ethernet port ready and waiting I was up and running within 45 minutes of calling NTL.

I now have an Airport basestation connected to the STB and share the connection between my Mac and my wife's XP PC.

"Terry"? LOL, I've still got my Terayon too. Must have had it over 3 years now, maybe 4.

When on 600k STB.

Upgraded to 1Meg model 2000 STB lasted 1 week before changed over to SACM.
STB could not keep pace at 1Meg.

Strange - mine seems to cope okay :confused:

Re: I connect to Broadband through a...?
 

I've had STBs running at 10Mb. 2Mb upstream too, and it seemed to cope.

Anyone out there using a *Samsung* STB for bb? Those are very rare beasts indeed, but I'd be interested in seeing if anyone has one.

Re: I connect to Broadband through a...?
 

I downgraded from 1Mb to 150k BB from work and only just got online about 20 minutes ago, you can certainly tell the difference. :D

Its going to take some getting used to again. :D

Re: I connect to Broadband through a...?
 

My problem stemmed from the the fact 'middle light' on STB not stable.
Stable about 20min/hr.

Re: I connect to Broadband through a...?
 

STB Pace 1000, I want to throw support at this because it seems to be getting little support so far. I've been on 600k Broadband through set-top-box and have hardly had any downtime on my connection. The few times it has stopped, all I have to do is switch off the STB for 30 secs, restart PC and everythings fine again. I only phone tech support in the early stages when I frst registered to iron out a few problems, since then, it's been excellent. Well worth the £24.99 a month. :) My first ever post on this new Cable Forum.

Re: I connect to Broadband through a...?
 

Welcome to the forum, pea-pod. :welcome: I'm curious - could you put a number to the few times your STB has needed a re-boot? Clearly it's an acceptable number for you; I'm just curious what you think is 'acceptable'. :tu:
