50MB Internet Would Be Really Groovy!
I Cant Wait For It

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

Correct and I gather that the "20"mb service will be shifted onto the docsis3 network too.

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

Well i heard from a VirginMedia Employee that after christmas VirginMedia are planning some changes.....Doing away with the 2 & 4mb BB and rolling in the 50mb BB. The 3 packages that will be available are 10mb, 20mb and 50mb as the xtra large service

Dont know how true it is but since i'm already on the 20mb i'd love to be moved to the 50mb.

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

I very much doubt 20 will move to 50mb but ig it is wicked as I will have a upgrade for the same staff price woooo £1.50 for 50mb

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

At what cost ( both £ & service) for myself 2mb is fine, if not somewhat costly.:(

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

That'd be good - 2Mb and 4Mb aren't overly competative, when most DSL providers are on 'up to 8Mb'. 10Mb as a base isn't bad :)

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

Since 4MB just got moved to 10MB, it makes sense that they would move the 20MB users up to 50MB.

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

has the 4mb to 10mb roll out been done? I thought it was still trialing.

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

Sorry I am being really stupid why would they trial something that they run already?:confused:

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

to make sure the network can cope in these areas which it cant but they are still going to roll it out

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

10Mb became 20Mb, there is no 10Mb anymore. I assume they are testing that the modems etc on the 4Mb at the moment can run at 10Mb or something - I don't know :)

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

Ok I am on 2mb at home & half a mb at work (yes really but not Virgin) we are that far away from the exchange When our ISP put it up it just failed. Anyway

For what I use it for I can not tell the difference, between the 2. really! So would I really see anything if they pushed it up? I understand that 10 is a lot greater than 2 - but are we just talking about a site up loading a matter of seconds quicker? .Please understand I am not looking for a "fight" I really don`t see what I would get out of it

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

the only people that would really benifit from it would be the freeloaders that download of the newsgroups

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

Or anyone that uses legal p2p or anyone that uses legal online HDTV streaming, or legal dvd download services etc.

Not everyone sits and downloads off newsgroups all day you know.

Re: Virgin Media announces 50mb lines from next year.
 

When? My 4Mb is still 4Mb. :confused:
