Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase
Hi Wasted.d,
Welcome to the world of ntl, the complete communications company..who can't communicate to their own front-line personnel.
It's a well known fact that the ground staff at ntl are told very little of developments. I know this first hand from when I used to work in tech.

This is exactly what CM Tech said to me on the day the 3mb upgrades went live. They weren't told what was going on at all.
There really is no point in calling ntl to find out when things are going to go live etc. Your best bet is to stick around here.

Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase
Swansea is the last place on earth to know anything  its best to ring sales, at the time of the last free upgrade I rang CMT and was told its not available yet, I rang sales and they said they could upgrade me now "If I want"
I had been told others had it, so rang sales (150)

Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase
I'm still waiting for people to post a copy of their config - there's been a lot of boasting about improved speeds but not one posting of a config screen showing it.

Re: ntl Confirms 10Mb Broadband Speed Increase
lets face i though any thing we've had or may ever get (config screens) could be easily photoshoped by someone with a one meg config file.
it could probably even been done with paint.
ok i thought what the hell and have mocked one up with paint

Think about it. If you were using something that you might not be allowed to would you post something that might get you identified. Not that i am saying anyone here would do that.
