Lol.. I think that will come a bit later From what I understand there is work to do in order to go to 6.4Mhz US Channels and higher modulation schemes etc..

But it will be a step in the right direction and one more box ticked etc

Re: 50Mb areas

Did New Malden get done as planned? The address checker still says no to 50 Mb/s....

Re: 50Mb areas

Reading the many responses on this thread does give the impression that no ETAs are available, in fact I posted on it on the page before this, 2 other people on this one. Pretty please peeps read at least the current page of the thread before asking the same questions.

Putting it more bluntly Stop asking when your area will get 50Mbit no-one who will talk knows!

It'll be announced a couple of days before as it has been per this thread. Keep eyes peeled.

Sounds like you're planning a house robbery or some professional stalking with that lot. Hide behind your fence, sneak up ladder, poke your head into some poor unsuspecting lady's windows and yell 'Boo!' then when the rossers come hide behind your shrubbery and pretend to be watering it.

Quite bloody right. I remember when talk unlimited was released, when I called up about it, the poor sod on the other side had to go check, which would have been a slight embarrassment to them.

Its nice to know, but what we need to know, we will know and be told by VM when things are right and ready. Im happy they do actually update their site when things happen.

As for 50MB, well I aint going to bother. Im happy with 10MB, but I wouldn't mind a more substantial upload, and back to dreaming I go

Re: 50Mb areas

I checked the post code checker yesterday and to my surprise my area (London W5 - Ealing) has been upgraded. Engineer is booked to install on the 25th Feb.
