Re: 20 Meg From June
I downgraded from 10mb to 4mb a month ago. since then i have had a consistent download speed of 3.8Kb (kbs)? whatever. I'll wait to see what happens but if they do roll out 20mb lets hope the upgrade those of us with Teryons Cable modems otherwise not much point!

Re: 20 Meg From June
Amazing this has just been released on the day some people maybe thinking about jumping ship and moving to sky due to the loss of sky1 etc, convienent timing i must say. Maybe they should try and sort out there current network before promising to overload it more

Yeah, they are already swapping Terayon modems if you are on 10Mb.

 Never realised this could be due to the removal of Sky channels.

should be more than capable of 20Mb, seeing as the Surfboard 4200 is capable of (IIRC) 38Mb BB

Re: 20 Meg From June
I had my Terayon changed for a 250 (Would this take 5Mb?)
Is there even a CM that can handle 50Mb+?

Re: 20 Meg From June
You will get a new modem for 50Mb. The modems they are using in the trials are much much bigger than a 250 modem though...

Re: 20 Meg From June
No sorry I can't find any pics... there was a link to a scanned newspaper article which had a pic of the modem on this forum. I remember someone saying on this forum that the modem is double the size of his Linksys WRT54G!!
A link to the 50Mb trial: http://www.ntlpilot.co.uk/

Re: 20 Meg From June
I guess with 20Mbit available, the warez crowd expect to leech 6,480 GB/month and expect NTL not to complain about their excessive usage.
