no change here, obviously there is different ports so not everyone will have this change but interesting they have started the work now.

ironically tho I dont want this uplift I finally have a decent service which I feel will go backwards when they get more generous on the uploads.

Im connected to cpc1-leic15-2-0-cust426.8-1.cable.virginmedia.com if that makes any difference.

I only noticed because my ping playing WOW went up to 1200+ for sometime when i woke up everything was all good. wonder how long it will take them a month mabey? 2

But your mini slot size has changed to 4 which from what I have read is important to the upgrade where as mine is still 1!

Not just yet, they'll be monitoring error rates first to make sure the bigger channels don't cause issues, then it'll be a case of when they get to it. :)
