It's degraded to 8 meg evenings now either because they've added more customers (it doesn't take much to tip the thing into the red) or they've temporarily swung customers onto our line card while they upgrade UBRs or whatever.

They tell us nothng. So you can expect anything to happen!
We went from 6 to 8 downstream a month or so before the 152mb boost but we've always had the max speed here no matter the packages over the years be they 50mb, 100, 120 and now 152. I think our area is more BT and Sky than Virgin tbh as i don't know anyone other than myself and my old man who use Virgin.

I honestly don't think they are anything to do with over-utilization or the current boosts but rather just a general thing they are doing everywhere for the future.

Still on 16QAM and only 2 for upstream.
