I suggest changing your signature to "whinge whinge, when can I get 4meg in <insert postcode>".... that way you can write anything and always be on topic

taking a guess, I suspect you're 94.23% likely to be wrong.

And just to keep on topic, no upgrade here yet (not that I'm needing it, I have way too much to be doing).

Re: [Merged] Speed Increases 1st June - 2meg to 4meg

Some other people I know in my area (Farnborough, Hants. Comes under the Guildford francise) mentioned that they had received their upgrade so I reset my modem. A speed test showed i hadnt received my upgrade so I checked the log and noticed

060620205926 4-Error X501.28 Unit Update - Not updating. This image is not for this platform.

I have an old Motorola Surfboard 3100 and I cant say i've noticed this before (its been a trusty peice of kit for the past 6 years). Does anyone have any ideas as to whats going on, is it related to the upgrade?
