Hi everyone,

to get my 4 to 10 upgrade I powered everything down ie modem pc, for 10mins, then switched the modem on for 5 mins, then powered up the pc, went to speedtest.net and hey presto

rebooting the modem itself is fairly adequate. :)

Note: The Maidenhead server won't give you reliable speeds at the moment. Keep with the London one.

use another which is more reliable. but tbh neither speedtest or whatever are accurate.

Is there anywhere where we can see what progress has been made on the roll-out?

Coo. nearly finished then. I wonder if when it's done they will be working more on the 50Mbit upgrades.

I have to admit that is one aspect of the upgrade that has me happy to stay in my un-upgraded little world. My 4MB connection is really rock solid, if the 10MB ever materialises I shall be a tad unhappy if I get a worse service as a result.

The good news, though, is that there have already been some users of the Baguley servers who have gotten the upgrade, even though it says TBC....so we're definitely getting upgraded now. Just keep rebooting the modem and wait till they work their way here, I guess. :)
