Problems

50Mb speed dips! and up and down inconsistency, current speeds I am getting is 6Mb. All the tweaking in the world will not fix it.
The problem is Virgins Kit and is currently being Investigated by the networks team.

Very Important Note

This is not effecting everyone my next door neighbour has the 50Mb and is getting constant full speeds all the time we connect at the same cab.
Bottom line is the kit is crap and they have rolled out far to quickly. For the time being problems look here to stay for a long time. If you have a problem contact Virgin they need to hear from their customers.

No STM is currently implemented on the 50.
How long to fix will be the big question.
At last some honesty from VM perhaps they should offer all there 50 meg a discount until they resolve these problems
