I live in Didsbury, Manchester. I noticed the schedule for upgrade changed to show Manchester as upgraded in the past couple of days, so I rebooted my modem a few times but I'm still getting 4mb.

modem info:

(new type black modem)

cpc1-with4-0-0-custXXX.bagu.cable.ntl.com

Network Access : Allowed
Maximum Downstream Data Rate : 4096000
Maximum Upstream Data Rate : 400000
Maximum Upstream Channel Burst : 1600
Maximum Number of CPEs : 1
Modem Capability : Concatenation Enabled, Fragametation Enabled, PHS Disabled


Didsbury is South Manchester, I presumed that it would be included with the Manchester/Stockport upgrades. Is this the case or..?

Thanks very much for any info at all :)

no. you're withington, baguley. and may i suggest that you remove your modem info, such as your hostname... ;)

Ah ok. Looking at the schedule that makes sense as didsbury is between withington and wilmslow, which are still "TBC"

Oh well.. :)

And thanks for the heads up, but I can't edit my post anymore, and it's already been quoted :P

Yep, it is indeed. My home address is: "Didsbury, Manchester, Lancashire"

so I overlooked the other areas, I just saw that Manchester was upgraded in July :P


Manchester area: Oldham, Bolton, Burnley, Rochdale, Blackburn, Salford, Stockport - Complete

Baguley area: Birkenhead, Macclesfield, Runcorn, Stoke, Warrington, Brombrough, Stretford, Wilmslow, Withington - TBC


It makes perfect sense now, after actually looking at it properly ;)

you won't be on the same server if you're in Warrington. you're hitting telewest.

Hi guys, not sure which server I'm on (would have thought Baguley) but I'm in Ellesmere Port (CH66) and I'm definitely getting 10MB now.

A couple of days ago I was convinced that it was a similar mistake people were making a lot in this thread. People claiming to be served from Baguley servers (which you and I are both on, I'm Withington/Fallowfield here) were saying they had just gotten the upgrade to 10MB. I was convinced that they were actually on Manchester servers and that they were getting confused. However, a few people posted proof that they were indeed on Baguley servers, and then posted the modem config page to show that they had actually got the 10MB upgrade. So we can deduce from this that Baguley servers are actually being upgraded at this moment in time, area by area (it is huge!), even though it is still saying 'TBC'.

So at least we know we're close.....and not to pay too much attention to the 'Where's My Upgrade' page. ;)

Yet on the 'Where's My Upgrade' page, Stockport is listed as being on the Manchester servers, which we know are complete. Curious this. It says:

Manchester area - Oldham, Bolton, Burnley, Rochdale, Blackburn, Salford, Stockport - Complete

Baguley area - Birkenhead, Macclesfield, Runcorn, Stoke, Warrington, Brombrough, Stretford, Wilmslow, Withington - TBC

The info on that page must not be 100% accurate if you're in Stockport and on Baguley servers?
