Talking Re: Where NTL failed

I read somewhere that Telewest are implementing DOCSIS 2.
Really? I hadn't heard that, but a bit of googling threw up this, which isn't exactly conclusive:
http://www.unitedforums.co.uk/vb/arc...hp/t-5624.html

TW aren't even able to use EuroDOCSIS, owing to a lot of their modems being DOCSIS only - 1/3 of ntl's UBRs are ED (the other 2/3 being that large partly because they're DOCSIS only).

Implementing DOCSIS 2.0 isn't an easy option, but a fair chunk of ntl's equipment is *already* DOCSIS 2.0 compliant, all the latest Ambits are, for instance. Also DOCSIS 1.1 kit is available in higher capacities and that *is* being rolled out now (in fact there's loads of it about now).
