Re: Virgin Media to Double Broadband Speed

because you are talking about two separate things. They added extra hardware last year as part of the 100mbit rollout to make 100mbit speeds possible and achievable by area so you could actually sign up for 100mbit.

Free speed doubling is something completely different and they are having to add extra channels and bond them so the capacity is on the network for when they bang however many thousands of customers from 50mbit to 100mbit.

It is like me making a motorway substantially longer so you can drive 200mph, but now I need to add an extra 3 lanes so there is enough room for all the people who want to drive at 200mph.
