No, but if you read a bit further down the bulletin it mentions Leicester

Network re-organisation may result in broadband customers in the Leicester areas having to reboot their machines to restore their connection during this maintenance window:

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds
This is normally stuff like router software upgrades - I doubt it is the speed changes. (but you can always hope  )

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds
I *think* it was a dhcp server upgrade, which would explain the IP change. I know it's hot today, but the calendar is scarcely late summer, so don't get your hopes up just yet.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds
I was hoping I would use it before I downgrade, as I am downgrading in 2 days at the start of the price rise month.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds
Summer hasn't started yet, late summer is a while away yet.

Re: [Merged] NTL Increasing BB Speeds
Its only a config file update 3 months (including time already waiting) is an aweful long time to achieve such a simple change.

Wrong.
British Summer Time has nothing to do with Summer.
Spring is March 21st to June 20th. Summer begins on June 21st.
