The following could be capable of 10Mb, but require a firmware upgrade:
ntl:home 120 (silver Ambit manufactured modem)

The following are not capable of 10Mb:
ntl:home 100 (silver Ambit manufactured modem)
Terayon Terajet 210
Motorola Surfboard 3100/4100
3com Tailfin
3com CMX
All Pace STBs

Testing has not completed on the Samsung STBs, however current results suggest around 8-9Mb may be possible. Higher speeds may be achieved with an upgrade to the uBR - but this has yet to be confirmed.

PLEASE do not call Customer Services/Faults/Technical Support requesting an upgrade for your Cable Modem. Technical Support cannot change your speed, and have been told not to send engineers for customers who are not receiving the full 10Mb downstream speed unless there are other factors involved.

If your modem requires an upgrade to receive the 10Mb service, ntl will contact you to advise you what to do.

FAQ's in part 1 of the thread:

Will the service be capped?
yes, there will be a 75gig/ month cap on the 10meg service that current 3meg users will be upgraded to

Will I need a new modem?
It appears that ntl 120 or later modems will have no problems with the speeds, however older modems and Set Top Box connections will need to be upgraded. Ntl have not released any information on this process yet that i have seen.

When are the new speeds going to be launched?
ntl have stated "By the end of 2006, the roll out of this new product portfolio will be complete."

My mate down the pub says he has already got 10meg, is he lying?
Quite possibly not, it appears that ntl are testing the 10meg service, and I have not noticed a particular pattern of who/ where is being tested.

Will the price change?
Ntl have stated that there are no plans to change monthly prices

What will the upload speed be?
Users who are testing the 10meg service at the moment have reported upload speeds that suggest it will be 512k.

What do i have to do to get 10meg?
We know ntl are upgrading 3meg customers first, but as for what to do... sit and wait for information from ntl!
