i cant wait any longer for you to tidy up so ill just reply.

its not clear you were infact asking a question,but rather making a statement, but no matter, perhaps you can rephrase this question to make it clear?

indeed....

i have a direct question for you if you are indeed as you say "I am more aware of the 50 meg Virgin stance than most on this thread"

what are the current bonded cable modems in use right now as in the exact model No.s, their spec and certificate standing with the Docsis org.

and are they software upgradable to a higher cert in the near future once the bugs have been removed, if your more aware as you say, then this most basic information is easy for you to put forward and answer clearly here.

Thats a bit too long a list considering all models accross Ex - NTL and EX- Telewest and I am not getting into a bun fight over modems, as some people say certain modems can do certain speeds.

Re: 50Mbit Rollout Has Started

I feel he may not know dude.
Really if that is the case why come on a forum and get your back up for nothing? I for one if I say I know something when challenged id be more than happy to give the information to ram it down the throat of the persons challenging me. I certainly wouldnt avoid the question

Re: 50Mbit Rollout Has Started

looks like your were right zing, he's buggered off
but perhaps he's gone to ask his tech for this most basic information as his bonded modem doesnt have a production sticker on its base

Re: 50Mbit Rollout Has Started

Perhaps we should remember that people aren't always glued to their computer so an immediae response to a post isn't to be expected.

He did respond he went Regards your right of course an immediate response isnt to be expected but Rob if you had kept up he had already avoided the question and when asked again he avoided it again . So not "being glued to the PC" isnt his excuse. I do see he edited his avoidence after he was pressured however further avoiding the question

The difference is I am fully trained with regards all makes and models of modems presently on the Virgin network, both EX-NTL and EX-Telewest models, which not everyone here will even know, and I have no need to write a description of each one just to prove a point.

Information which you of course know

Lets face it Trax has leaked information from an unofficial source and has also been a tad naughty on the newsgroups. The accuracy of some of the information is questionable and his constent digs at VM techs and CSR's is a bit of pain given that he has absolutely no idea what information is being given to them or training.

Because I am not going to list 19 modems and their operational parameters plus STBs just to prove a point.

I know their capabilities and thats all thats required.

indeed...

what are the current bonded cable modems in use right now as in the exact model No.s, their spec and certificate standing with the Docsis org.

and are they software upgradable to a higher cert in the near future once the bugs have been removed,

well done whydoIneedatech , but thats rather a strange totally unrelated response as regards the one single bonded modem in use today question, to the people that have followed the thread so far at least.

iv added the current contents above for clarity you understand,after all we wouldnt want to take it off on a tangent now would we given the simple question put.

indeed, as i suspected, and dont doubt, which makes your reply even more strange.

as its perfectly clear, you were asked to give just one single bit of basic information as regards the Bonded Modem(s) in question.

that would take you less time to type than the text you have written to explain your expertise in all things docsis (ex-pre)VM related....

Of course the current bonded modem(s) in use can and indeed may change before the real 70% rollout takes place as is expected if the current kit is only Bronze certifyed, but even i contend that Bronze is probably good enough for the moment other than the prefered Silver certificate for upstream bonding and far longer term options and profits,(not to mention shhh... that bronze security problem that silver would fix OC)
