Arrow New Ambit Firmware available
"Bloke in the Pub" says
New firmware is available for the Ambit modems, reset your modem, after it syncs it should reset itself again, when it stabilises go into the diagnostics and see if you have an NTL logo, if so your firmware has been upgraded and the modem is ready for 10Mbs (probably).

The End (of 3Mbs) is Nigh.

Mine says NTL at the top now

Also a nice big warning at the bottom I'd not noticed before...

Re: New Ambit Firmware available
thank you very much, modem updated. I think you should leave the 3mb, and do 2mb first....

If you are doing nothing wrong and havent altered anything on the moedem then there is nothing to worry about. The firmware will be altered from time to time. I have the new firmware and happy to have this update.

Re: New Ambit Firmware available
It looks as if they've fixed that bug that stopped you from logging into the modem after it had been online for a while, it's still letting me login after 4 hours of uptime. Not a huge bug, but nice that it's fixed

Re: New Ambit Firmware available
By the way this was sod all to do with 10Mbit, just to pee on the bloke in the pub's bonfire a bit

Firmware was a compatibility, security and prettyfication patch.
