Re: Bromley upgrade starting....

Sorry, TV and Telco are totally unrelated, so the BU2 upgrade doesn't effect the features available on your telephone line.

Re: Bromley upgrade starting....

Got our update this morning (around about midnight). I rebooted the box hoping the new channels would pop up, but got the new software instead. I'm in Rochdale (OL11). Haven't received a letter advising of the upgrade, nor a booklet and ch119 was always showing the phone offers) but it came down on a reboot and it really is a lot faster!

Re: Bromley upgrade starting....

lol my partner was moaning yesterday that he was in the middle of watching Supermarket Sweep on Challenge at 5.30am and it went off to do the upgrade (I think its ntl's way of telling him to get better taste in tv shows!)

Re: Bromley upgrade starting....

No you don't, but if you'd already programmed it to control your TV, it won't control both at the same time.

To reset it to control the box, I think you need to set it up with code 0000.

It's being looked into by the ntl software development team.
Is there any news on when we can expect a speed increase cause it's starting to get a little irritating trying to change to a specific channel & getting something else entirely because it's so slow.

For example I was on BBC1 last night & wanted to change to channel 30 (Sky1), I hit 3 then 0 & instead of getting channel 30 I got ITV1 (3) then channel 0, this happened 3 times then it got the idea I wanted channel 30 & gave me it.
