Re: New Speeds - June 1st
 

That's interesting as I'm in Wythenshawe too, also with a Samsung STB and I'm not seeing speeds on my general internet use today that amount to anywhere near 4mb. I'll have to run a test tonight. How long have you had this for?

Re: service status/upgrade sequence

Have you rebooted your modem? I'm in Basingstoke (via Reading); that was also listed for today (the 13th), but the new speed didn't kick in until I rebooted just now.

These results appear to be rather fast: maybe this page was in the :D

Re: New Speeds - June 1st
 

Yes I have it conected to a router which I use for Xbox live without having to unplug the modems cable. Will try speed test again sometime with just a direct connection.

But my web browsing is still very slow if I am downloading from newsgroup which wasn't the case before the upgrade.

It's almost as if the modem has been tweaked to only allow it to concentrate on one thing or the other. If I stop downloading then the web browsing is quicker than it used to be but with a 4 meg download service I should't have any problems downloading and browsing at the same time.

It's the same if I am download anything from a web page, while the download is ongoing the web browsing is very slow.

This did not happen before the upgrade.
