When you go through to the next section it tells you about the new speeds - if you don't know your password I guess you'll have to call them.

Re: New Speed Upgrades 8th March. (Part 3)

So are we meant to use the Cable Modem link even if we have a STB? If I click the STB then it tells me to phone them up.

What speed are you currently on and are you using a Set top Box or Stand alone cable modem to connect with?
