Re: *ALL* Speed Upgrade Discussion In Here Please (Part 4)

Oh the confusion of it all.

Rang NTL last Friday to get my Pace box swapped and was told that another Dept was handling all upgrades and they would call me this week.

Heard nothing all week so called back to chase up and was told by a very helpful young lady that she could schedule an appointment for me but it would be about a month.

So I said no problem, could I downgrade to 1Mb for a month whilst I waited for my Samsung and she said the Pace couldn't handle 1Mb so I couldn't.

Then she had a problem with her PC and had to call me back. When she called back she said that I'd have to have a Cable Modem because they weren't supplying Samsungs in certain areas.

Is she right about the Pace boxes and 1Mb?

Is the cable modem thing correct because if it is then it's probably the end of me and NTL cos my 12 months is up and my missus won't want "another box cluttering up the lounge".
