Smile Just joined Virgin Media

Hey guys & gals. I've just joined Virgin Media (and Cable Forum for that matter) and managed to get a great deal. I managed to get the VIP 100 TiVo for £199.95 upfront cost and £110.55 a month. The gentleman I spoke to managed to knock a lot of the upfront charges off and swap the second V+ box for a V+ HD. Basically everything minus a mobile as I already have a contract with Virgin Mobile.

Anyway, I haven't had Virgin in a couple of years as the house I'm currently living in doesn't have cable. I'm moving to a new property on June 1st and it feels great to finally be able to get Virgin again.

I have just one or two questions regarding the 100meg service. Does it have any limits on it - such as throttling on the upload and/or download? How well does the Superhub handle the 100meg connection? I've read mixed reviews on the Superhub but not so much on the 100meg service with it. The last broadband equipment I had from Virgin was an old blue NTL cable modem back when they didn't technically "allow" routers on the network.

Thank you for taking the time to read my thread
