I am not making excuses here, as I am one of the STB users with 1Mb, and am quite angry that NTL haven't ugraded the 1Mb STB users, but NTL are having to replace a lot of Pace boxes. This is obviously taking some time, This could be for many reasons (people out when the engineer calls round, replacing faulty STBs, lack of qualified techs etc).
It would be nice if NTL were a bit more forthcoming on when they aim to upgrade us STB users though. At the moment, we are paying the same as 1.5Mb SACM users, but for two thirds the service.

I'm sure that the Samsung boxes would solve, for the most part, this problem with its bigger buffers, etc.. 600 and lower users don't have to suffer this problem; besides, they are the swines who are paying less than us too! -)

I have no problems with my Samsung box. Didn't have many with the Pace either, although that was too slow for interactive.
