Re: New VM Business service - 350Mb
I had a dig around the site but couldn't find anything. There is a FUP but nothing specific.

Hmm, I like the look of this, with the option of multiple IPv4 addresses.....
Traffic management would kill it for me though. |

At present the max is 200 where I live. As and when 350 is available I will consider it.

Re: New VM Business service - 350Mb
I'm trying to get confirmation from them as to throttling outside business hours and the prioritisation over residential customers that has been mentioned.
But you only have to read through the various T+Cs etc on their website which contradict themselves in the same document and refer to clauses that don't exist to realise this product probably hasn't been fully thought out! |

VMB pushed the 350 / 20 config to my Hitron router today and it seem this time round they have built some headroom into the config:-

Re: New VM Business service - 350Mb
We have had the Hitron installed on the 350/20 service with 5 fixed IPs and had two issues so far:
1) The main IP address we were assigned must have been reused as we soon found it was in blacklists for mailservers (both Microsoft O365 and Barracuda). We have sorted that ourselves, but it would have been nice if VM had checked this! 2) We are getting big slowdowns in the middle of the day when careful speedtests show speeds of less than 20 Mb/s download but the upload seems fine. Tests earlier in the day show speeds closer to the 350 Mb/s although not quite as good as ccarmock. This is slower than the 50 Mb/s service we used to have. This makes me wonder if either the tunnel used for the fixed IP service is coming out onto the network in a congested place (we pop out near Bristol) or that they are running a throttle which is either setup incorrectly or is a very bad deal. Anyone had similar problems? |

The one issue I did have with the new 350/20 service was variable upstream performance. I did notice that the upstream frequencies were not usual frequencies - as they usually end in 0000 these were offset. That has been corrected by VM and I get a rock solid 20 Mb/s up now too. |
Re: New VM Business service - 350Mb
I have had mine installed today.
https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2017/05/5.png I can confirm by my order manager and the engineer that there are no limits on VM business broadband. |
Re: New VM Business service - 350Mb
Details of no limit now detailed online: https://www.virginmediabusiness.co.u...oadband-Speeds
Quoting the specific bit: Traffic Management is not enforced on business broadband connections but is enforced on others to help protect network resources. To further protect bandwidths and speeds we operate a fair use policy which is detailed within our Acceptable Use Policy |

Can anyone do a speedtest on thinkbroadband? I wonder if higher priority means better single threaded speeds. Does anyone have a BQM on this new service? |
