Oh dear god I think I'd better go and lay down. Yes it is, and more to the point just checked my CM config and got exactly the same. Lets hope this isn't just testing... Even if you got mixed up between the 2Mb/20Mb downstream for any reason, the 784Kb upstream is bit of a giveaway - shame it couldn't be 1Mb tho. Then again never look a gift horse in the mouth.

Re: Did NTL up their speeds ?
People like me are strugging to get 1Mbps on the 10Mbps package in the evenings and they are doing trials for 20Mbps for others? Great work NTL.

F**king idiots!

Re: Did NTL up their speeds ?
Problem is though, having run the speed test, whereas I had a stable connection at 9-9.5Mb before, my test results are generally coming back at around 5-6Mb, occasionally bursting to anywhere between 10 and 18Mb. Can't really understand that one, as my area is well under capacity (which is all good for me of course).

Re: Did NTL up their speeds ?
This is just stupid, they should learn to make sure all areas are handling 10Mb fine before dishing out 20Mb to others.

What a stupid way to run a business...

Fully agree. As nice as 20Mb would be, nobody REALLY needs it yet. Like you say, they should sort their current systems out first.
