Re: *All* ntl 10meg Discussion (part 2)

had major greif with ntl over my speed last month. broadband support was awful, telling me to use netstat and stop any unneccesarry open connections- causing my laptop to crash. came on these forums and you kind guys advised me to configure IE to a specific proxy server in my area. the result? the fastest speeds i have encountered, nearly 2meg all the time ( which is what i pay for ). tonight the madness has started again. i have changed the proxy address to every available one in bromley. 1 min its around 1700 kbs and then 1100. have also tried using other areas - no joy? i hope its because of the matience tonight, however other people from Bromley say their ok. ****ed off!

Re: *All* ntl 10meg Discussion (part 2)

if you try and upgrade your speed from the NTL homepage the message has changed to this

Unable to upgrade your connection speed We are sorry that your current package or connection speed is not appropriate for an online speed upgrade. Please call customer support on 0800 052 2000 for further assistance with changing your service level


That message changed in the last hour or so

Just letting you folks know

Re: *All* ntl 10meg Discussion (part 2)

no upgrade here in swansea. I have the NTL:Home 100 modem. Will this need to be exchanged for a new one to get the higher speeds ?

Ashford still showing upgrade is unavailable but I wasn't overly confident anyway so nothing lost.

I gave up after Nicky Campbell refused to personally take my calls

Although, If I go through the online speed upgrade process, instead of an option called "ntl: 3 Mbps Broadband Internet Service" (which it was called last night) It's now coming up with "BUND03 Service". Not sure if that means anything...
