Yesterday, asked to go on 10Mb/s, just the speed increase not the highest price band. I was on the 2Mb and after 10 mins it came through. They did say it was only a trial so I can't complain but... the speeds are all over the place now. Using a 4100 cable modem with firmware Software Version: SB4100-0.4.9.4-SCM02-NOSH, Hardware Version: 0, MIB Version: II , GUI Version: 1.0, VxWorks Version: 5.3 in Cleethorpes, Lincolnshire. Average download speed so far is 540kb/s, so about twice what it was at 2Mb. Does seem to be restricted speed, starts off at over 1Mb/s and settles at 540kb/s, like the 2Mb/s settled at 220 kb/s. Using Apple's Quicktime 7 as a test file (32MB). Hopefully they haven't put me on the ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£37/month price.
