Telewest Targets 50 to 100Mbps!
 

Telewest are to launch 50Mb and 100Mb Boradband services in 2006. It will use the Data Over Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS) standard which works over hybrid fibre co-axial cable. BT users in the mean time will have to wait till at least 2050 for that sort of speed!

Can I blame it on the half-empty glass of red wine in front of me?

Re: Telewest Targets 50 to 100Mbps!
 

Think positive, it's half full.... ;)

Re: Telewest Targets 50 to 100Mbps!
 

Actually I've just topped it up - tough week.

Which reminds me - I must have another go at your stress test to see if my eyes are wiggling too much...

Re: Telewest Targets 50 to 100Mbps!
 

Hm yea I just noticed the date too, it was posted on another forum as well... Just wondering if their date is set wrong...

Re: Telewest Targets 50 to 100Mbps!
 

Either way, it was posted in 2005 proclaiming 'super speed increases in 2006' last I looked it was 2006, where's the speed increases ;)

Pie in the sky

Re: Telewest Targets 50 to 100Mbps!
 

Nope, their date isn't set wrong. The article mentions the rollout of 10 meg which it says "started Yesterday". The 10 Meg rollout did start around september 2005.
