Is there something that i need to do as it says nothing on the doublespeed site
Completion of the upgrade preparation does not mean that your speed automatically doubles at the end of the given VM timetable. Your modem has to be remotely configured to the new speed. This only takes a minute or two. However, they could choose to do that today or in weeks or months time.

My area is due for completion today also, but I ain't holding my breath.



Here's the message I get from the site today. This is a change from yesterday's message which told me work would be complete at the end of October 2012.

"Your area is ready

Congratulations! The new double speed boosts are already up and running in your area.

We've finished upgrading the fibre optic network in your area.
More about the upgrade

Want to see how much more you can do with your new speed?"


As you see my speed is still 100/10. Also my modem config has not changed after a reboot. My down config is still 110000000 bps. My up is still 10250000 bps.
