Not flamin' likely. When they rolled out 20meg there was a lot of chatter on here about the fact that NTL (as was) was reluctant to upgrade modems, even though only the newer NTL:250s were able to cope with it.

There really oughtn't to be any of the old grandpa modems (Motorola Surfboards, Terayon Terajets and arguably any NTL or VM branded unit with a number less than 200) left in posession of any subs who are taking a service faster than their modem is rated for.
