Looks as though Bromleys been updated today.

Config is 10 meg and getting increased upload speed, downloads using BBMax are a bit hit and miss at the moment but hopefully will stabilise.;)

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

10MB upgrade just received here in Norwich!

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Upgrade for Bishopbriggs in Glasgow as well....woo hoo...I think!!!

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Are you sure it's been updated. Mine appears to be the same

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Well it has been in my area (Bexleyheath) - which is on the Bromley platform.

Getting 9.9 MB downloads now on BBmax.

Try 192.168.100.1 and root/root (user and password) to have a look at your modem config. Look in operational config/Downstream data rate - should be 10240000 if it has been upgraded.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Oh yeah, it's 10mb. It only changed when I rebooted the modem. Sorry, it was just that it was showing 4096000 when I checked after your post

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

yep, bromley has been finally upgraded to 10meg, about time too.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

Started downloading a 1Gb file and been capped already to 2Mb...I new this 10mb upgrade would be a trojan horse.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

you are supposed to have a higher STM download limit when they switch you over to 10M, guess they messed that up as well.
Still stuck on 4MB Here in the POOLE area.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

800mb is the STM for 10mb...i think lol 700 or 800 one of them...still 4mb here in birmingham...

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
 

I assume you mean they've started upgrading areas on the Bromley platform, not that all Bromley areas have been upgraded? I'm in Leeds which is Bromley platform and still on 4Mb.
