Doesnt breed confidence, what does this mean, ntl will refuse to get the lower reaches of their footprint caught up in favour of getting a few areas ahead for PR reasons?

Someone posted on another forum it would make sense to put the trial in ntl's worst areas. In other words why not spend the money where its needed anyway and upgrade these areas a few generations in one go so it doesnt need doing again for a while.

the chetnet link gives me this.

No Thread specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator

someone got cold feet publishing the info?

I read also on a pcpro link that bittorent are involved and ntl will use some kind of p2p technology to optimise the network.

Also i found this which might be of intrested, it actually quotes some bod @ NTL

He is reffering to 100mbit lan, a 10mbit xfer isnt really stressing your lan hardware.

I can fault their service. Peak time congestion on my ubr is approximately 18 hours a day.
