Cool could be us 1Mb STB'ers are going to start getting our upgrades on the 1st Sep as thought

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

yeah I agree customer's should have the choice but cable modems are a lot smaller then a STB and gives superior performance but if you have the pc near the tv and like a all in one box for tv and the net then fair enough.

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

In what area?

Re: [Merged] BB Speed Upgrades
 

It's hard to deduce from the full article, it's either all areas or Charminster, Grantham, Grimsby, Stafford, Shepshed, Swindon and Whitchurch areas. The site lists several things happening on this day, but it doesnt say if the other faults will be for the areas listed or for everyone.
