However I'm not going to discuss it further as it's not really relevent to this thread and the upload increases have their own thread where I'm pretty sure you've already made your point several times http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/12...anagement.html

I just bring it whenever someone misleads that all.

If an area doesnt have the capacity then it isnt technically capable. Nothing complex about that.

What were you doing talking about 10:1 in this thread if its off topic?

July onwards for me, will this require a changed Router?

Perhaps answering another poster's question?

You may need a new modem if you're on 20meg at the moment and don't have a superhub. You'll get one free of charge in this case.

You won't need a new router, either you can use your old router or if you happen to get a superhub, you can use that but you'll have a choice.

I'm not sure if you're genuinely asking about routers, or if you've got modems and routers mixed up so I apologise if I sound a bit patronising.

There will always be areas that are over capacity, it'd be impossible to keep every inch of the country ahead of the curve. One thing I will say is that Virgin are definitely making an effort to do something about areas with high utilisation, which is more than I can say about them a few years ago.
