Re: Anyone on the 20mbit/s yet?
you can ask for one but they will probably try to charge you ..just kick up a fuss and threaten to go to sky and they will soon relent...

pretty sure the motorola sb4100 can handle speeds up to 38mbit so you should be fine in my estimation

I really wouldn't trust that site for speedtests. I can decent results from various sites and tests, but on that site it always shows bad speeds.

Reading almost exactly half. Although it's not as bad as you guys, it's still odd for where I am (usually always get full 10)

What modem do you have? and what config file is the cable modem using? Is it using similar naming system? ie: cm-20480-768 ??

Trying to cheat the system eh?

I asked them that question about my SB4100. They never actually answered it, just said someone would be out Tuesday to fit a new one. (No charge.)

99.9% sure surfboard sb4100 can handle 20mbit fine...even upto 38mbit but if theyre offerring a upgrade for free then that can only be a good thing what with the 50mbit trials in the future...if not free then i advise you wait to confirm sb4100 can handle your 20mbit..i see no reason why it cant...38mbit down and 10mbit up max
