Can i upgrade to 500Mbit
Sorry folks but is there anyway to upgrade to 500mbit without paying the extortionate £99 price tag with the ooomph bundle. i currently run 350mbit only broadband at £47 per month. oh I'm in Belfast btw. FTTC with about 50m of copper.
TIA |

the only way currently to get 500 without oomph is via the VM business website this is how i have it thought the price is £70pm so for the extra 29 quid you get a fair bit extra for your money via the residential side lol

Even if you get the oompth bundle you are not guaranteed 500.

Yes you can keep the dynamic ip option or add static ones if you please, As long as ya not in contract you should have no problem switching over, VM contracts are not changeable mid contract between residential / business though oddly enough they do allow you to have both at the same time if thats something you want to spend the dosh on, also bare in mind if you have TV with them and have a V6 box you cant use business broadband it has to be residential The Hitron isn't exactly brilliant but its not the worst ive had to use its basically identical to the SHUB3 internally other than having 4 phone ports on it VS 2 it does its job since i dumped the static ip i run mine in modem mode and use my own router so i dont really notice it much and i always get decent speeds so its not really hampering much business does end up costing more in the end for not much difference i only really got it originally because at the time i wanted static ips which i no longer need but the fact they dont bundle the extra speed behind other bundles and the 12 hour SLA is kinda nice to still have, im just waiting for them to roll out the Gbit one for the extra upload speed lol That Turned into a bit of a essay but hope it helps lol Ash |

ive seen some screenshots of the config files on the Gbit service & that user actually had a 1200Mbit config but yes it was stupid of them to only include Gbit ports as we all know the wifi aint gunna get those speeds lol but i guess its more about multi device than single devices getting those speeds as far as VM are concerned The hitron uses bang on the same chip set as the SH3 so yes still the puma TBF at least in modem mode i havnt really had any problems with it though, i do with they'd just let us buy our own modems like they do in other parts of the world on cable networks as TBF i do actually prefer only having 1 device lol but at the same time id rather use my own router than the limited interface of the SH3/Hitron |
