Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
Got upgraded to 10Mb last night only to find it back a 4mb this morning. I'm less than happy but it should still hopefully worth the wait.

Re: Virgin 4Mb to upgrade to 10Mb February - Summer
Update on 23rd still says "September", so less than 7 days to go .......
So, do I have to reboot my cable modem every night until I get 10Mb or what

Pretty much, I think, although you can do it in the morning or afternoon if you want to make it more exciting. Some people have reported getting the upgrade without having to reboot, but if this happens you should reboot anyway, or you'll cop a b******ing from eth01! (don't ask).

And an instant later the network keeled over, it has taken time for a reason to stop the network from crashing with total loss of service.

I get the idea, at some point probably in october everyone gets upgraded to 10Mbit instead of the slow drawn-out rollout.
Sounds good to me. :p
