It's exactly the same type of channel you were getting 5Mbps on earlier and exactly the same channels that have been running in Huddersfield so what they're trying to prove

Thanks for the info.
the classic NTL/Virgin Media PR innovation perhaps ! their PR moves to the CPE kit , My modem says its set for 10 Mbit/s upload so thats what im getting.

VM couldn't care less about these slaps in the face, the people are still spending their money with VM and VM don't have to pay out to upgrade areas.

Dedi boxes aren't guaranteed bandwidth by the way, that would indeed cost megabucks and wouldn't have a transfer cap.

You cannot compare bandwidth to a datacentre with bandwidth from the home, the most expensive part of VM's network, by far, to provide bandwidth over is the last mile.
i dont think so Broadbandings, its hardly compareable, a one off cost for the single CPE modem,UBR etc in the last so called mile.

they spend far more of your subscription PCM on VM core network bandwidth passing over the external links, were an internal re-config would more likely push it over the available direct peered links in the data centers around the world.
