Area ready for 120mbit?
Got a call on saturday offering me 60mbit same price as got now, or can upgrade to 120mbit in october for extra £5 month.
Checked my US channels to see if any work had been done and nothing changed, and lo and behold here is my TBB graph for last 24 hours before this post, idle line.

Openreach now gave me a fixed date for 6 dec 2012 for FTTC it cant come soon enough to get away from this circus.

Re: Area ready for 120mbit?
there is a new US channel, I managed to find a way to get the vmng300 to swap over.
So a new US but no bonding yet.

Re: Area ready for 120mbit?
the vmng300 wont swap on power cycles. It will swap if it thinks the US channel is down.
I Left the coax making very poor contact to the modem for about 5 mins and then screwed it back in and it was on another channel. A completely new one I havent seen before.

that what i am doing with my SH 480 
I find 2 more upstream channels but won't lock on it, no matter how many times i have tried
will start (fast) flash green then will lost and back search other channels so back to the 2 normal ones
Also with this way if you take out the coax (have it touching lightly the connector) and put back quick will change the downstream as well but no difference in traffic for me

Re: Area ready for 120mbit?
Since they introduced the STM for the top packages I rarely download and when I do its either early in the morning or late at night. I have tried to get a channel swap from 25 but it doesnt seem to be working

Re: Area ready for 120mbit?
don't bother with Virgin Media 120Mb - go to FTTC 80Mb down and 20Mb up (far better than Virgin)
