hey guys just some questions about the telewest upgrades....
found out like most last year they were gonna upgrade the lines to 10mb for 2mb and 4mb customers (i was a 2mb customer)
last year in november we had crap internet for about 4 weeks while i guess they were doing work, checked the website and it says whilst work is on going you can experience problems...so i thought fair enuff
also read that they will contact each customer DIRECTLY according to the site and i havent received any correspondance at all???
have other ppl received any letters/calls?
atm im getting decent upload speeds most of the time, above 40kb/s a lot of the time but download varies considerably...
during the day it can stay around the 2mb area if not slightly slower (just did a speed test today and its about 500 :S, maybe just a 1-off)
but at night it can scream all the way up to 10mb, when downloading from microsoft my mate got 1200kb/s download which is fantastic
just wondering if everyone in newcastle has actually been upgraded?? it does say on the site north east complete.....
also i have a surfboard 4200 modem
is this compatible with the 10mb speeds?
is there anything i can do to increase my DOWNLOAD speeds during the day? (ie modem properties)
cheers
gonna ring telewest at some point to ask them too, wish me luck
