Re: 50Mb areas

Doesn't look like it's anywhere near here yet, so I'm not exactly wetting myself with excitement.

Please read the rest of the thread.

I'll say this again.

There is no release schedule, areas are getting added and activated when they are ready. So please stop asking when places will get enabled.

Re: 50Mb areas

Generally there has only been a couple of days notice from when an area gets announced till its released.

Talking Re: 50Mb areas

You would think wouldn't you that someone with a 50mb connection will have used the DSL Zone or some such speed test site by now, but I have seen no sign of any 50mb tester.

Does 50mb really exist?

Yes it does exist, on a staggered roll out.

That would be me asking somewhat 'dryly' when it is going to happen. No plans that anyone here is aware of just rumour.

Lots to do before they even think about offering 5Mbit.

Re: 50Mb areas

Just wish they would get a move on and roll it out in Hemel Hempstead, this ultra slooow 20Mb (2.35MB/s) is killing me!!
