help needed after going from 2meg to 10meg

ned1 · 17-04-2007, 19:23

Hi all,
Upgraded from 2meg (via TV set top box) to VIP package a few days ago with V+ and modem (10meg) fitted no problems.
To save myself looking silly by ringing virgin, Could anyone tell me,
when I changed to 10meg I had to re-activate my B/B and TV with new password etc.
today I have just tried to update my website but have been unable to get a connection, could this be due to the fact that I have upgraded or do all the
addresses, links, web space, etc, stay the same.

Thanks for any help

You may need to call them and make sure they transfer the webspace to your account. Have you tried both your old user name/ password combi as well as the new?

afaik you should use your 'old' details to access your webspace, otherwise it shouldn't have changed.

Not sure about this one. Both the above should work the best thing to do is ring up and see if they can sort it out .Or someone on hear might of had the same problem good luck

Ok,
I have phoned Virgin Media about not being able to upload to my web space,
The guy on the other end was very good and after some Q & A and checking came to the conclusion that explorer 7 (which I have just put on) will not let me upload to the Virgin Media site for whatever reason, so I will have to go back to 6 (can I have both running) to upload.

ps I will let you know if it works

I believe the FTP tool using Internet Explorer 7 has been removed by Microsoft.

Hi, I am using Terrapin v2,
the install date of explorer 7 is before I uploaded last time with no problems so not sure what to do now.
I may tire FireFox and see if that helps.
Thanks
Ned
