Re: Free 2 to 10 upgrade

Is anyone here from the Cardiff area still not received their upgrade? I know on the timetable it says Cardiff will be upgraded in May but given we are in the last day of May now I'm getting a bit worried. A friend of mine was upgraded last weekend, but despite resetting the modem every morning I'm still getting 2mb/256kb

In the CF23 area, registered on virginmedia.com for the upgrade a few weeks ago, still reporting as being on the broadband package of 2mb.

Are you sure you're on a Cardiff CMTS? Some of CF23 is on Pentwyn. Click the Connection link at the top of this page. If the answer includes pnwn, you're on Pentwyn. (Something like cpc3-pnwn8-0-0-cust143.cdif.cable.ntl.com)

That link doesn't work, although I can log into 192.168.100.1 and go to cable modem configuration from there.

Maximum Downstream Data Rate : 2148000
Maximum Upstream Data Rate : 256000
Maximum Upstream Channel Burst : 1600

Just checked; cpc2-pnwn1-0-0-cust653.cdif.cable.ntl.com

And Pentwyn isn't scheduled to be upgraded until July/August..... LAME

Thanks for the help guys.

I assumed that you were using an Ambit modem for that link to work.

As you can see from what you posted that you are still on 2Mb and when your speed increase the config will change from 2148000 to 1024000.

Re: Free 2 to 10 upgrade

I was upgraded from 2>>10 about 8 days ago..

Since then my speed has seldom been above 3mb..generally about 1.5.

Today it has been a consistent 1mb..OR LOWER...

Modem is a NTL200, connected by Ethernet..

I was generally better off before the "upgrade"

Re: Free 2 to 10 upgrade

I'm in CF23, I registered for the upgrade at the beginning of May, as I was still waiting, I phoned C.S. on Friday, who said that there was nothing on the system to say I had register.
Anyway, did it over the phone: the cable modem says that it's got the 10mb download, but the maximum I get via speedtest is 5.5mb.

your SNR is borderline, 30db is usually the minimum - you may need an engineer visit ???
