Re: Anyone on the 20mbit/s yet?
Probably crash if we all attempt to reboot at once xD Be ironic if those who really wanted the speeds actually couldn't connect to the internet at all...myself included

Countdown to what? A lot of disappointed people, posting on here, that they haven't got an upgrade.

No 20mbit till possibly 6th???
is this the maintainence link that tells customers of the 20mbit upgrades taking place between 12am last night and 6th of may? if so does it mean some of us may not get our 20mbit til 6th?
