Thought I'd make a contribution as I wouldnt have got 10mb without this forum:

Go to this link and you can choose from several different test links, all work. Have fun Everyone.

P.s Upload speed also works, just make sure you dont upload a confidential file, I know it sounds stupid, but we all get tired and click on the wrong files to send sometimes.

done that early this morning, lunchtime and this afternoon, no joy - my account showes 10meg, i'm on 3meg still and no firmware upgrade=total disaster.

Cannot go back to 3meg (although i'm still on it) as system don't show 3meg anymore, went back to 2meg cos was going to do it manual through NTL upgrade site, nothing has happened all day to even try (still on 3meg and not 2meg), so put back on 10meg late this afternoon but config file showing 3meg settings.

try explaining that over the phone!

Hope there's not a bug in the upgrade

Is anyone else getting this? My modem must be on its tenth reboot now

rmg · 17-11-2005, 16:23

soz if this has already been asked.

im on 2 meg in Stevenage with an ntl 200 silver modem.

If I upgrade to 10meg using the ntl upgrade website:
Will I get 10 meg?
Will I get it immediately?
Will I be able to downgrade back to the 24:99 option (10meg with 50gig cap) once it becomes available? Or will I have to pay 37.99 for 12 months minimum?

Thanks.

As far as I'm aware you would be able to downgrade to the 24.99 option after 30 days. Your modem is capable of 10mb and it should be available in your area http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...ight=Stevenage

Look down the road and if you can see a pair of legs dangling out Limp from a green box that could be the problem!!.

Now seriously, you need to get hold of TS.

and let's be clear about this, if you downgrade to ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£24.99 you will go to 2meg you wont remain on a 10meg option with a lower usage allowance.
