Ntl Business 1.5mb

Hi All im relateively new to this site, but I was wondering if any of you knew if the 1.5mb cable modem business service from ntl would be recieving any kind of upgrade to 3mb or even 10mb anytime in the near future?? Possibly someone from NTL could shed some light on this subject for me as I feel business users are getting left behind in the dust with the 1.5mb service whilst home users are getting upgraded to 10mb ?? Any answers please!

Nope, i've asked my partner if I can string some cat 5 back to Teesside, she's none to crazy about the thought of 90 miles hanging out the back window.

Re: Ntl Business 1.5mb

Well my friend pays almost £100 a month for 2mbit adsl office 20:1 and is very happy with his service, no cap to worry about and never ever lags or slows down.

Re: Ntl Business 1.5mb

Heh I got no problem with say 7-8 meg as you state, but if I cannot stream a 256kbit clip and download at sub 1mbit speeds, then how does that make it better then a reliable 2mbit connection?

Re: Ntl Business 1.5mb

Re the original question we still have an NTL business BB connection. I pestered our sales rep the other day and he told there would be an upgrade to the BB speeds soon for business. He told me it would come in Feb, whilst someone else had previously told me last August but then revised that to Jan 2006. We'll have to wait an see.

Re: Ntl Business 1.5mb
