Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

They have said not all area's will get done at the same time, its a 'FREE' Upgrade just be patient.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

YAY!

Can confirm that Rugeley (Lichfield area) is now upgraded.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

They? NTL? where? Point proved, if ntl actually informed of what areas are being done and when, I wouldnt need to be so annoyed, but they havent, its so easy to hide behind that defence, but as NTL hasnt released ANY information about this upgrade, what else can I do, all that NTL needed to do is put on their status page "On 2nd august we will be upgrading the following areas, bla bla, .... " and I at least I would have known.
On a subnote, anyone get commincated to from NTL in any form before this? (As stated in the press release back in April?)

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Glasgow seems to have not had it yet.

Although maybe because I have not rebooted modem yet.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

wirrall has been done :D it didnt reboot my modem, i had to do it, works perfect

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Im not at home but matrix has eased my fear's, have to agree with the earlier post those who havent had the upgrade need to be given an estimated date and ntl need to inform all their customers whats going on else their could be hundreds of thousands with unrebooted modem's getting no upgrade.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Cardiff is now upgraded :D

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Hmm, September, Least I know now, finally :/ (Biggleswade area) *Selfish moment* Any NTL'ers tell me why this is the case? this UBR has been doing well to be fair (Low pings, high DL speeds, near 0 outages) Sods law isnt it? :'(

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Still broken links on it...

[drops more notes]

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Tells me my Farnborough Postcode wont be upgraded till September, strange thing is my speedtest results indicate i'm already upgraded as they are up around 150k on yesterday

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

So its wrong? (what speed are you on btw? 600k or 150? :P) Im now confused and well, annoyed, I know its selfish, but if a NTL bod could post here, (Or pm me) when Biggleswade (and the area around it) Is set to be upgraded, I will give you a kitten, im off to work now, Heres hoping :p

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

Upgraded!:cool:

St Neots, Cambs. Everything working fine here.

To see if you have been upgraded, check the Cable Modem itself.

To do this:

http://192.168.100.1 User: root , Pass: root

Click "Operation Configuration"

in the box you'll see some settings, if you were on NTL's 1MB (like me) and you think you've been upgraded you should see this:

Maximum Downstream Data Rate : 1536000 bps Maximum Upstream Data Rate : 256000 bps

:D

(oops, I said STB and I ment Modem, sorry for any confussion.)

And to whoever posted the postcode tracker link thing, i get:


When is the speed upgrade happening in my area?

Your service is due to be upgraded during the month of October.

It doesn't appear to be very accurate! :/

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
