just before she hung up on the last call she said "hang on i just got an email apperently you can have 10 meg on a trial for £37.99 amonth "

im on a sacm ntl200 from manchester and the couple of speed test i have done so far are showing 5 meg down but its still 2 and half more then they were before

Re: *All* ntl 10meg Discussion (part 2)
 

hmm done the upgrade without any probs from the update site but I only get the speeds of 3meg instead of 10 :( whilst my config says this:

Network Access : Enabled Maximum Downstream Data Rate : 10240000 bps Maximum Upstream Data Rate : 512000 bps Maximum Number of CPEs : 1 Software Upgrade File Name : ntlhm120_ntl0001.cpr Software Upgrade AdminStatus : allowProvisioningUpgrade Software Upgrade OperStatus : completeFromProvisioning

whilst a speedtest gives me this:

Speed Test Results Download: 2,660,384 bps Upload: 384,392 bps QOS: 79% RTT: 12 ms MaxPause: 94 ms

oww well I think its not really ready in the Northamptonshire area then :( as I havent even seen anything on the ntl pages that this area upgraded at all :(

:notopic: nice skin, SoulLuna?

The speed test sites *may* be overloaded at the moment though with everyone testing thier speed to see if they have the upgrade...

PS Microsoft is overloaded due to the SQL Server 5.0 launch if anyone is using that as a benchmark btw...

True. :disturbd:

Re: *All* ntl 10meg Discussion (part 2)
 

Thought I would throw my two penneth in.
Here is my speed test after a very nice lady upgraded me this afternoon

Downstream 4978 Kbps (622.3 KB/sec) 5376 Kbps (inc. overheads)
Upstream 492 Kbps (61.5 KB/sec) 531 Kbps (inc. overheads)


Spoke to support (very nice man) I guess in Swansea to try and increase the speed, we tried suspending/ re-enabling the modem, rebooting and changing the ethernet config on the cable modem but no joy.

In the end, left it as is. Hopefully will right itself over the next few weeks.

Re: *All* ntl 10meg Discussion (part 2)
 

Very disappointed with ntl re these 10mb rollouts.

Phoned CS and said I was on 3MB and asked to be upgraded to 10mb. Nice CS lady said her office had only been informed that new customers could get the 10mb at the moment. I said it was on various forums that cutomers on lower priced tiers could upgrade to 10MB, while I, as a 3MB customer, could not. She said this was incorrect, but I explained that many people had aready upgraded. I went on to say that I had been a loyal customer for 15 years and said that I was dissapointed that I was always last in the line for improvements. Ie Bromley upgrade, free ntl dialup (which never happened despite "original" ntl customers getting it) etc. She was sorry, but said there was nothing she could do to help me.

Its not fair that when you are loyal to a company be it a bank or in this case tv/broadband company, that high paying loyal customers are a low priority. Time to re-evalute staying with such companies that don't treat long standing customers with due respect. Might as well flit between diffrent companies and always get the best deals like most young folks do now. I'm a slow learner, but the lesson is now well and truly learnt that loyality now has no value, bit like in the whole of society as a whole.

Been doing some more testing from lots of sites and I'm only really getting 4mbps speeds. Bit of an anti-climax https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2005/11/7.gif Guess I need to persuade some neighbours to swap to ADSL

Still, 60K/S upload is nice to have.
