*yawn*

I really wish some staff would learn the meaning of the words 'I don't know' rather than making stuff up. :dozey:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Dammit, go ruin the fun why dont you. :sleep:

I wish NTL will make their mind up tho, its cheesing me off. :td:

How much will 1.5mbit be for Cable TV and Phone paying ntl: customers? £35?

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I wish everyone would just wait quietly.Like public transport it will come when it comes.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

The last time I checked, not many people are very patient, or quiet about public transport either :P

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Got a letter from NTL this morning stating that they will be contacting me in the next couple of months to arrange a date to exchange my STB.

The letter says that in order to get the new 1.5mb service a new STB is required and this is going to be exchanged free of charge :)

There's also a picture of the new box, although i cant tell what make etc it is, but its nice and shiny silver :)

Im in a ex-cable and wireless area, so it looks like the current pace STB box that I have isnt capable of the new speed increase.

CAnt wait for the new box to arrive.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Sounds like the Samsung box :tu:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Yup - I understand there are some swap outs going on. Not that the Pace can't do 1.5Mb, the one on my desk does and believe me it's damn quick (176Kbytes/s sustained). However, I don't watch TV on it since someone nicked my TV so I can't say if it affects that, or interactive, or makes the box play Cliff Richard records or some other ghastly side-effect.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

BBKing you have 1.5mbit already?

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I got that letter too this morning, the only problem is I already have a shiny new Samsung box that I got when I joined earlier this year...

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

the same as the current 1mb price - £38

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

All very well incognitas, but by the time it comes it will be out of date :rolleyes:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

What he said ^

1408k connection??

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Damn, thats expensive, maybe I'll get 2mbit ADSL...

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

actually i was told the same information

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Is there anywhere to get a spec of what connections this box has, eg. audio, SCART etc. , so I can compare what it's capable of to the one I currently use?

Cheers

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Well then I refer you to my post 567 then. :p:

Incog.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Yup. On my desk. At work. At ntl. In the lab :)

Not on the live platform, I hasten to reaffirm :)

There's some info in post #32 and through the rest of the thread.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004

Late summer... as it says in the thread title... that is as accurate as anyone can be at the moment.

MB

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

:) Thanks MB!

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Current information that I can tell you :)

Upgrades to the infrastructure are continuing for the increases - a lot of money is being spent.

Large resegmentations are being carried out to increase available bandwidth - this includes new cards that give 2 downstream & 8 upstream channels per card instead of the current 1d to 6u. (but any talk of higher upstream speeds is still just rumour ;)). These measures should help areas where there is currently congestion.

A lot of new fibre is having to be installed as well for these upgrades, which takes time.

Also, a load of new proxy (netapp caches) are going to be installed in all areas.

There is a lot more I would love to tell you, but it's still hush hush atm, so I can't reveal it.

Oh, and there is still no final date other than the current end of summer (or before if it's ready).

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

try this thread here http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...68&postcount=1

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I just want to define the end of summer if it hasnt already been defined:

"The official end of summer is the autumnal equinox. The autumnal equinox happens on September 22 and it marks the end of summer and start of autumn."

A cool fact (but unrelated):
"On that day of the autumnal equinox the day and night are exactly the same length."

I will stick with NTL till then to see how they get on with their 'upgrades'.
plus.net unlimited 2meg service for £39-99 is tempting though :)

[I wanted a pray hands smilie but couldnt find one - makes me sad]

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Same here with the news today that BT is to cut the monthly charge on its high-speed broadband internet service, by up to 25%, and having both BT and NTL in the house Iâ₠¬ÃƒÆ’¢â€žÂ¢ll have to take a look again at the BT service and price.



In all honesty £12 I think is about right for the lower BB service, during the summer I was actually thinking of dropping the service as with everything the cost of the phone,TV and BB all adds up to over £30 a month and its simply not worth that, Iâ₠¬ÃƒÆ’¢â€žÂ¢d rather pay more for a new house or car than a Utility

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Yeah. Well enjoy your monthly gigabyte.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

BT Broadband Basic - £19.99 a month, with 1 GB download capacity

BT Broadband - £24.99, 15GB

BT Yahoo! Broadband - £26.99, 15GB

BT Broadband 1Mb - £28.99, 30GB

BT Yahoo! Broadband 1Mb - £29.99, 30GB

or

Wanadoo 512K - £17.99 a month, with 2 GB download capacity

Tiscali Broadband X3 - £15.99





I donââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t download a lot so yeah it could do me a treat, I do play the odd game and email and browse the net and thatââ‚ ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s about it, sorry I donââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t live on the thing!!!:Yikes:




Enjoy your downloads!!!!!:p:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Sadly I will have to stick to NTL as my BT phoneline can only accomodate a 512kb/s service.



No good to me!!!



I have never had any problems with NTL but am just itching for faster speeds.



Although I have to say that I think most people would prefer a higher upload than download??

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Same here no probââ‚ ¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s with NTL I just want better value for my money. My 128K hardly sets the grass on fire for itâ₠¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢s £17.99



The more competition the better, the only service I nearly changed to was Tiscali as a few of my friends are on it and getting more value for money. It looks faster but thatâ₠¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s probably due to the numbers using it in our area at the moment.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Sorry if i sounded offensive or something :)

I do think its a nice deal for people who dont download all the time, but for others its just not good enough...what do they do? Bump you down to 56k if you go over? :td:

I just think now, if im right before there wasnt all these caps and such with 'unlimited' broadband but now all these are popping up.

I for one will just download as much as i want, not worrying about some cap.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Nah no offence taken:) , I understand that some want to download, god I have a friend downloading all day and night, wither he actually uses his machine is another thing but it sits there always downloading something.





But too me

Wanadoo 512K - £17.99 a month, with 2 GB download capacity



Is great as I pay 17.99 for 128K and I only use e-mail, browse the net and play the odd game and I to be fair I donââ‚Âà ‚¬ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â‚¬Å¾Ã‚¢t know what that uses up.



When the say download capacity does that include upstream net stuff like playing games and receiving e-mail? Or is it purely downloading?

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

f2s do 1meg with 1Gb/mth for 14.99

has to suit somebody.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Gaming uses nothing much to shout about, you arent going to go over your cap doing that.

:Yikes: :spin:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Its all right posting all these prices but to keep things balanced there is still plenty of adsl packages unmetered.

pipex 1mbit unmetered £33.99 or 2 gig limit £28.99
pipex 512kbit unmetered £23.44 or 1 gig limit £19.99

nildram
dsl500 PAYG £15.99
dsl1000 PAYG £23.99
dsl2000 PAYG £31.98
all 1 gig or 50 hours usage
dsl500 £25.99
dsl1000 £34.99
dsl2000 £44.99
all no limit

difference here is other isp's give you a choice and even the unmetered packages are cheaper then ntl's metered packages, considering both the above isp's dont use transperent proxies either you have to wonder whats going on with ntl.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

plusnet

unmetered prices
512k 21.99
1024k 30.99
2048k 38.99

so for 1 extra pound you get double download bandwidth and no cap and no proxies, even after ntl speed upgrade ntl look absolutely abysmal with this. also take into consideration adsl prices have 256k upload on the 512k packages. ntl really need someone new in marketing.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

ntl

• Free install
• Free modem for life of subscription (or during trial if you choose not to subscribe)
• 60 days FREE broadband with no obligation to subscribe.

After the Sept. upgrade

300K - 17.99
750K - 24.99
1.5Mb - ??

The upload doesn't concern the masses who want what they consider to be the best value deal, i.e. they want free install, free connection, and a low monthly sub, ideally, free or half price for the first month. If there's one thing ntl don't need to worry about it's marketing broadband to the masses.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

>
>

Permit me to disagree. :upyours:

If Wanadoo can do 512K for £17.99 per month, then NTL certainly need to sack their sales staff. :knock:

I am "one of the masses", I DON'T care about free installation and connection, OR a "free or half-price for the first month" carrot. I DO care about speed per pound and consider that "best value deal" proposers believe Yorkshiremen say"Eeh bah goom!" and Scots chew heather.
I have been waiting in the dark since the initial promise of doubling my 150K speed during late June, which stopped me from going elsewhere.
Now I find, thanks to this great forum - no thanks to NTL at all, I have to wait until "late Summer"for an inferior deal than offered elsewhere. :cry:

And while I'm in full flow, I disagree with selfish customers who sabotage an ISP's attempts to provide a reasonable service for a reasonable price, by downloading continuously pirate music, thereby hogging all the bandwidth, slowing everyone else, increasing the cost of the service and making capping necessary. :blah:

Before I dive for cover, I will admit I have been satisfied with the service I have received from NTL for some years now, and I think the support staff terrific. :hugs:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Who told you it was late june?
If it was NTL, then cancel your account.
Because they have not delivered what you were promised.
It just seems to me, might be wrong, but NTL are getting the money in first before coughing up.
A bit like I have stated previous, you go into your supermarket and pick up a 4 pint carton of milk, getting to the checkout they tell you that will be £3.
When you query the price they tell you "But in late summer it is going to be 6 pints".

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

First of all there was no need to reply with such a rude smilie.

The speed increases have never been due in late June, they will almost certainly be late August / early September.

As for "the masses" - I'm pretty sure most ntl customers almost certainly do care about the installation charge and low cost startup deals - and only use it for a bit of general browsing and e-mail. Hence most are on the lowest tier.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I sincerely apologise if I gave any offense. :blush:

It was done "tongue in cheek". I think that smilie is cute and that they (smilies) help to make the forum more fun, which is the reason I use them. :dunce:

As for the legendary "masses" - in refuting the blanket assumption of their requirements, I intended to give another point of view, not repeat the assumption of being their spokesperson. Installation costs and start-up deals will certainly be important to some although, as long as they are reasonable, the long-term costs concern me more. I would think, however, that those who have transferred from dial-up are interested in a little more than "a bit of general browsing and email". :)

Whatever - chacun a son gout, and apologies where required. :Peaceman:

Afterthought:- surely a smilie would not be included in the list if it's use was deemed unacceptable?

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Fair enough, but in future I suggest you add a wink or something after it to signify it was meant to be tongue in cheek. The way it read, it looked like an offensive signal directed at wade vi.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

NTL should offer alternatives ie. the current deal or reduced payment per month with a setup fee and customer buying own modem/router, so they cater for everyone and not just the low end user's.

A friend of mine rang up yesterday and a rep said leicester will be 1st August.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Thats maybe the time they are performing the upgrades required for the speed upgrade, Im now under the impression that this will be a national switch-on, I could be wrong though....... :angel:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

More news from BT, which can only be good for BB prices.

The process of opening up BT's networks to other operators - known as local loop unbundling (LLU)

It published proposals to open up BT's exchanges in May and at the same time BT announced that its charges for LLU would be dropped by 70%.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

got on to ntl today about my phone bill as it was wrong but got it all sorted so i as him about the free broadband speed upgrade he told me that my area (belfast) is down for 28th july so we are only a few weeks away ,i cant wait now ;)

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

My area too :) good news if true.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Here in Bromley bb performance has never been an issue for me (since I changed to a SACM :) ) but in the last few weeks I've noticed reduced latency, with most of the ntl core network returning sub 10ms pings and my own servers coming in at around 14ms - So it looks like they've been spending some money :)

Keep up the good work! (lest hope it stays that way when we all get the increased speed)

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Interesting, someone else on digitalspy said that apparently the entire country was going to get the upgrade next week.

Although... shouldn't the upgrade be going ahead this week from what someone else heard?

You can see where I'm going with this... :angel:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I heard the end of July :shrug: Anyone else :rofl:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I heard it was done at the end of last week :erm:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Indeed, Ive long gave up with NTL actually telling a date, so Ive decided to start enjoying My new PC i built last week, when It happens, yippee, I'll live on until then. All these rumours are just made by people who want to feel important, but we all know what would smash those rumours :LOL:
I'll run away now

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I think exact date's given by reps are probably true, its a bit different from people saying I heard. Belfast on 28 July and Leics on 1st August would make sense as they are close to each other so would suggest maybe ntl are doing upgrades from late july to early august and I doubt the whole thing would be done at the same time.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I agree the core network looks in good shape, extract from a traceroute back to my home PC ubr from the office:---

So go-on ntl switch it on now!

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

The core network was always underloaded - traces from external sources confirmed this. Just local HFC area's (to you - cabling in your area) were getting congestion hence why latency wasnt as good as it is now. NTL have just resegmented yours and many others areas.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Well last week I lost my internet for 12 hours, but the thing is the D/S light was the only light flashing, and it was flashing quickly which I havn't seen before :erm:

After the internet came back on, iv'e got better internet performance, downloads + uploads more stable, lower latency in counter-strike etc. Although my speed still reads 150k, NTL must be spending a lot of money around my area too :D

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I had the same, thought it was a fault, NTL CS didn't seem to know much about it though and arranged for an engineer to call. :s

All back up and I can report the same as you, stable and lower ping in games - still reported to be 150k

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Hi mate.

1) Try using something like Matt's Traceroute or HRPing for more accurate readings, these can both be found with a quick google.
2) Leicester is scheduled for a major upgrade in the near future which should improve your latency a little.

glad to hear about the upgrades :)

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I didn't start with ntl, the core network to your local router is fine, your problem is the local cable connection.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Just back from being out of the country for a few weeks any idea latest date on upgrade .

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Some people say 28th July for Belfast, so presumably end of July/beginning of August

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I just upgraded from 600kb to the 1Mb, I wanna know when NTL will be upgrading the 1Meg to 1.5Meg in the W2 area. Also the person on the other side of the phone said that the 1Meg was £34.99 a month I though it was £37.99 since that is what it says on the website.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Lots of lovely rumours. I'm sure our ntl contacts will let us know any firm dates (either officially or otherwise ;)) and we will then pass these on. :D

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

He is not talking about the speed upgrade here, but a network upgrade, a pretty big one. ;)

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

OK, that's a date for Ireland - what about the UK?

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Iâ₠¬ÃƒÆ’¢â€žÂ¢d take it as read the UK will be the same, great I think we have a Dateââ‚ ¬Ã‚¦Ã¢â ‚¬Â¦.



These companies like to do things as a whole. If the UK Date is any different Iâ₠¬ÃƒÆ’¢â€žÂ¢d be surprised.



Good a few more weeks and I have 300K:)

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

both ntl ireland and ntl uk customers download the same modem config files from the same server

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Has anybody else noticed that we pay for technical support but in Ireland it is free as it is included in the subscription charge or have I missed something?

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Wrong, If I remember correctly, isnt NTL ireland a seperate comapny from NTL UK now, and dont have the same management (Or customer relations staff obviously) and thus that date is all but irrelevent to US UK'ers, although, anyone at NTL UK saying "well we cant give you the date" should look there to see how its meant to be done, Played NTL Ireland

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

depends on definition technical support:angel:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

OK, I see some people have them signatures that tells us our ISP and browser, and mine is saying ntli.net? I thought it was ntl.com?

EDIT: Or is that my network blocking it off?

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Those signatures that purport to be reporting your IP are flawed, in that they are actually reporting one of the various caches you may be routed through.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

I remember them saying ntl.com before, never had ntli.net before though :erm:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

Check the list on Robin's pages - bearing in mind ntl are constantly upgrading pending the imminent speed increase ;)

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

wrong ;) running docsdiag, i get these results...
...i've heard ntl uk users claiming that they get the same.



while the management situation may have changed, the technical setup certainly has not. here's the result of a traceroute from my house in dublin to a website which is also hosted in dublin...

I have been looking into my NTL Crystal ball:group: and here are my predictions for the upgrade.

Two phases first 600k in very early august then 1meg in very early september:D

Re: Th'engineers predictions for the upgrade
 

Nice one engineer, 750 mb here we come :D
oops 750k even :o

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds Late Summer 2004
 

although im on the 600k package and this is good news for me this is the 3rd slap in the face for top tier customers, seems like mr hussein really has a good influence at ntl.

Re: Th'engineers predictions for the upgrade
 

What about the poor old 150k users?

Earlier or later still?
