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

Just rebooted my modem in cf24 and it has been upgraded to 10mb. Wow, finally! Strange they never posted a month when it would be done by, then just did it overnight.

Have now been upgraded in CF11!

Maximum Downstream Data Rate : 10240000
Maximum Upstream Data Rate : 512000


I have to say I am very satisfied with that - from problem to resolution in a couple of hours with only a couple of postings to a newsgroup. not bad.

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

Cwmbran S Wales now up and running 10mb great stuff!

I've also had the golden touch of newsgroup tech support - They are an asset to VM :nworthy:

10mb..... oh wait, I'm in a STM time zone. Guess I'll have to wait a while :doh:

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

CF14 done now... maybe usenet posts made them realsie something was amiss?

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

Bugger im at work now, just my luck - cant check my connection in HG1

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

I'll be checking as well, later, in LS16.

Here's hoping.

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

Just restarted my modem again, and it worked :) Sweet, sweet 10Mb

That'd be DOCSIS 3, EuroDOCSIS is what the formerly Cable and Wireless areas fed from Bromley SHE use. Most broadband downstreams are already 256QAM apart from some of the Bromley areas which remain 64QAM but deliver equivalent bandwidth to the 256QAM non-Bromley areas.
