There has been plenty posted about the new speeds if you look around. Someone will post details of when it is available as soon as it is known.

Re: Speed Upgrade
Talking of upgrades, anyone know where I can check if I've been upgraded as yet as the link is no longer on the NTL site.

Re: Speed Upgrade
Have you tried a modem reboot as I believe in some rare cases the upgrade has been done but requied a modem reboot?

I can remember 300 baud rate then I got a new modem and I thoght I was flying at 1200 baud!
Looking back at the comms portion of my phone and Compuserve bill makes the broadband subscription cheap!
