Yea matey nothing doing here so far,

Not to start the "WHAT DOES NEAR FUTURE??"?"?! MEAN" debate off again, but im hoping by near future they mean in a few days, im sure ntl aint holding it back just to annoy us. I think they will need to figure out the 100 and 120 files before they continue with the rollout.

I can imagine it now "bob down the road is on 4 meg but I aint, whats going on!!!"

im a 120 and im pretty sure my internet from's Belfast i got..

2 megabits per second
Communications 2 megabits per second
Storage 240.5 kilobytes per second
1MB file download 4.3 seconds
Subjective rating Great

i rung NTL customer services yesterday and she explained that i had been upgraded to 4mb and that if i was still only getting 2mb ring techical support and so i did. the guy there explained that everyones account had been updated but they still need to update the servers to give the actual speed which will all be done by the end of june....

Which is what's been said over and over and over... you get the idea. The email that most (or some) people got said BY THE END OF JUNE.

Oh and

This discussion is about the 4mb service not 10mb, best go kick NTL in the pants if you're not getting 10mb

DigiDragon · 08-06-2006, 13:34

Me too - my ntlhome 100 now shows 4 meg.

mcmanic · 08-06-2006, 14:43

anyone done a serious downlod test on NTL120 Home Modems, like say 6 connections to a newsgroup to get a max download to see if the firmware can hack it, don't wish for a repeat of the rebooting 003 10meg firmware under heavy activity

likewise · 08-06-2006, 15:12

Just tried a newsgroup - speeds 430-500+ using Grabit - all connections.

Cardiff, 120 modem

Likewise

Hmmm, 'Re: New Speeds - June 1st'
i dont see anything in that about limiting the thread to 4Mbit only talk.

is it official that the 10Mbit is staying at the 512Mbit (or is it 500Mbit)upload rate or did they officially increase it, inline with other changes, if so what to ?.
