i just cant see it happening, unless they did change docsis, and if NTL did not upgrade docsis then made the stupid move of upping it to 400k expect a mass influx of new complaints about degraded service....

remember each upload channel is small 2-4mbit i cant remember the exact figure but it is between those two, have about 300-400 users (busy channel)

now you have 6-8 customers on 1meg and on 600k taking in to account constant uploaders and peak time usage its chaos if it was 400k.
400 users on each upload channel? blimey, thats a bit high, Ive tested mine a few times using docsdiag, and theres 6 upload chans on the server, each with around 100, apart from channel 6 (one i'm on) which has 80, which seems pretty low by the looks of it, so Gwan ntl, chuck meh upload up, wont harm you, much,
