you wouldnt need to offer excuses you'd just point out that no lights were lit up and therefore it had died of natural causes.

I'm gutted to just find I have an NTL 120 modem, presumeably the 100 & 120s are the oldest then?

Most certainly are. I would suggest asking for an upgrade, afterall, you do pay for it.

Ritch · 06-06-2006, 15:32

Would an upgrade be of any extra charge to me?

They would most likely try and charge you, it depends who you get on the other end of the phone and the engineer who is there on the day to replace it. I guess you could claim it keeps turning itself off randomly and you're not quite sure why.

Other people on the board know alot more about these things though, best off waiting til one of them reads this and offers a better alternative.

Changing modems isn't an upgrade, the 100 and 120 will work fine, just they are having some additional testing

The Terayons and CMXes are the oldest, however they are 'quality' modems despite their age while the ntl 100 + 120 were built as cheaply as possible.

Does this mean that the 100 and 120 modems fail on a regular basis

I don't see why there should be a problem with the 120 modem as i have that one & mine worked fine on the 10mb speed never had a problem & 95% of the time i could get max speed

is there anything offical on this, do this mean us poor 100 or 120 owners have to wait even longer then, lol - blooming typical that is if so, whats the odds it'll still be borked

JeLLyMaN · 06-06-2006, 17:10

Well that sucks about the 100 and 120's

.

I assume most of the older customers have 100 or 120's if they havn't already been upgraded?

DJ_Price · 06-06-2006, 17:11

Ive got a 120 modem & I was wondering if i could get hold of a 250 modem & connect it all up would it work ok & would i then receive the 4mb upgrade as Im in Cardiff.
