Not much of a secret really given you got it from ISPReview.

Doesn't exist even in a lab. VM's plans call for the capability to deliver higher downstream than that tech is 'theorised' to by 2016, with the upgrade path to do it mapped out and the budget in place.

I would have just said "stop posting crap"

So why do i now have this config, was a 100Mbps connection (speed doubled from the 50 I was paying for? http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/35738962-post130.html)

Super Hub VMDG480 config now

Code:

Primary Downstream Service Flow
SFID	35715
Max Traffic Rate	225280000 bps
Max Traffic Burst	10000 bytes
Min Traffic Rate	0 bps
Primary Upstream Service Flow
SFID	35714
Max Traffic Rate	6451200 bps
Max Traffic Burst	16320 bytes
Min Traffic Rate	0 bps
Max Concatenated Burst	16320 bps
Scheduling Type	BestEffort

Wooosh!
Only speedTests at 170Mb/s max mind, and I probably need a new router (Asus N66), but clearly way over the 108 it used to be!

Presumably a trial is being run in your area. Saw on the VM forum that someone's config had gone from 50 to a 100Mb and it was confirmed as a trial. I'll see if I can find the thread.

There we go: http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...e-view=desktop

Another downstream doubling with no upstream increase? Meh.

Yes, would much prefer improvements to upstream. Only possible use is for markettng an 'unlimited download'. When it is quet in the morning I'll find out if my routers are the bottleneck!

smallclone · 18-03-2015, 08:24

Must be a trial here in Cardiff too. My internet was down this morning. I rebooted the router, checked the speed and just got 206 Mb/s

106% more than I pay for.

Direct to modem mode shub1 now get this

Sephiroth · 18-03-2015, 10:32

It's almost an answer to the question posed in this thread.

General Maximus · 18-03-2015, 16:16

how interesting, if 100 is being doubled to 200 I wonder what 152 is going to. Surely we would need a new modem if we are going up to 300mbits?

It's certainly possible to do 300Mbit on 8 channels, but you're right - I'd imagine 12 or 16 would be better. See what Virgin does, I suppose.

General Maximus · 18-03-2015, 17:43

yeah, if they are doing trials you would have thought we would have heard about a new modem by now if they were intending to use one. It is interesting because although they could try and go with shub2 from a cost saving point of view, they can't afford the negative press if everything back fires and everyone turns around and says they cant get more than something like 250mbits.

Sephiroth · 18-03-2015, 18:05

AFAIK there is a new modem coming, mon General. Capable of 24 x 8.
