modem upgrade
 

Are they still charging £50 to upgrade modems?

have looked around the ntlworld site and upgrade pages but see no mention of it any more or im just missing it somewhere

As far as I know, You will only need a new modem if yours has become faulty or if you require a speed that requires one of the newer modems.
NTL will supply you with one free.

So which modem does which speed?

ntl:250 does all, i dont tihnk any the other older modems support 10 meg

Re: modem upgrade
 

i still got an old cmx and dont get anything above 7.5meg, shows how long i been with them but also im getting random stalls on the conenction, data rate drops to 0 and i have to reboot the modem to get it working and sometimes even with a reboot it will stall again after afew minutes where sometimes it is fine for days

cheers guys

So my NTL Home 100 is a piece of cr@p?

Re: modem upgrade
 

If you are on the 10mb service, then yes it is not going to serve you much good and you would need a new modem (ntl:250) from NTL.

For 1mb or 2mb you will be fine with this (NTL Home 100) modem still.

Not true I am sorry to say. Ambit 100/120/150/200/250's will all support 10 Meg service.

Motorolla 3100/4100 will not get the full throughput as the ethernet connection on the modem is a 10baseT.

As far as the 20 Meg service goes, 150 is the oldest modem you can use on this service, the 200 and 250's should work no problems at all.
