Il still take the £114 thanks and wait a couple of weeks :D

My point was though that anyone could probably get this even if you have the upgrade. Just call to disconnect (say switching to adsl or something) and you will probably be offered it.

And if they don't....you'll have no Cable and have to get ADSL anyways... lol:D

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
 

Yeah the ambit 100's can take 10 meg. I read they couldnt at first, but I dunno who thought that up. :confused:

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
 

whats the best way to upgrade to 10mb, via the weblink or talk to a cs?

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
 

just got off the phone with NTL..i asked about the upgrade to 10Mbit (i am on 2Mbit atm)..she said yes it's in my area(grimsby) and would i like to upgrade at a cost of £37.99 a month...so i said 'i thought it was going across all tiers and the cost would be on the monthly cap...' no sorry was the reply thats not avalible in my area....bummer:dozey: ...looks like i will have to wait a bit longer,a extra few months or so will not hurt..as i'v only been waiting 4 years for a decent connection from NThell..:rolleyes:

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
 

I'm having major problems with my NTL 120 modem. I get the full 10 meg fine, but I'm currently trying to download a patch for the test realm on World of Warcraft, it uses a bit torrent downloader and every few mins it reboots my modem. I'm not sure if it's because of the amount of connections or if it's a similar problem to a previous poster and it's because of it maxing upload.

What should I do, can someone here with NTL contacts help me get my modem switched to a 250?

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
 

:td: :td: :td: :td: :td: To NTL CS i gave them a call this morning about the said 10 meg and if i could join in the trial. The lady on the other end said yes its up and running in your area and you could get on the trial. After all the chat about its only a trial and you might not get full speed blaa blaa blaa. she said right now thats done with all you goto do is reboot the modem and youll be on the 10 meg.
Why Why Why do thay have to lie to me ive rebooted once no joy again no joy left it off for 8 hours while i was at work no joy. thats is one of the worst offeces in my book for CS staff :nono: and thats to lie lie and lie again.
why not just say no you cant have it till december FFS. :shrug:

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
 

I upgraded by the website, worked first time, watched modem reboot itself, full 10 meg after that, and no CS involved, have you tried this way to upgrade?

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
 

they might aswel start letting us poor sods on 2mb upgrade to 10mb then with the ol 30gig cap. I'd be happy with 8mb and a 30gig cap tbh but we should be offered something its not hard to send out these modem config files. Its a blatent marketing scheme to get people to upgrade to the 37.99 package on NTL's part, which is kinda fair, but doesnt do them much in gaining loyalty and respect from there customer base.

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
 

Hi anyone go to Makro much? if so do they sell routers which should be able to handle the 10 meg connection? if yes any recommendations?

Re: *ALL* ntl 10MB Discussion (Part 3)
