go to "Operation Configuration" and then it should say:

Maximum Downstream Data Rate :
Maximum Upstream Data Rate :

They will tell you your upload speed and download speed. You should have 20mb in the next 2 weeks.

Re: 20mbit Upgrade in the North East

you're on 2mb!

my modem is a ntl:120, and i believe this means i'll have to get an upgrade. should i just ring and ask for one?
also, will my config page tell me that its set to 20mb even though it can only cope with 10?
cheers.

No I read it wrong. What he posted was a 2meg connection with a 200kb/s upload! Not the 2meg I thought it was. Missed the extra nought!
