Wish they hadn't bothered upgrading mine from 4 to 10mb.
Ever since the net just hangs for 10 min every 5 mins.
Totally pee'd off here.
CS tell me there is wiring work going on & to stick with it.
Will be getting ADSL in if things dont improve by next week.

Got the upgrade here on the Lewisham part of the Bromley headend... but beautifully, much like when I had 20Mbps, I'm still topping out at 3.6Mbps downstream and 360kbps upstream. It's pointless me paying any more, I never get any more bandwidth!

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer

for all the guys be patient, I got upgraded to 10mb for free in South East area last month, I got what they said I would, sometimes even 12mb. Amazing, just upgraded to 20mb and i get 22 mb now. Virgin Media are doing their best you know, i still prefer Virgin Media over BT, AOL, Tiscali, any day. Along with the new FIREFOX 3, im experiencing internet at its best, all i need now is a new pc unit and im happy, cant wait till christmas. lol

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer

Anyone in TS17 got the 4 > 10mb? Mine's still on 4mb and I've rebooted the CM a few times. (BTW, it is a Surfboard 4100).
The VM website says Middlesbrough, Stockton areas are complete and there are a couple of recent posts in this thread from Middlesbrough users confirming 10Mb upgrade but I don't seem to be getting any of it . So I don't know if it is me or they haven't in fact got round to all TS postcode areas.
