Re: Anyone on 100MB Yet ??

Its not really wrong as the site lists for Broadband and Cable Availability.

While a 100 meg is impressive users on 50 meg moving to a 100 will not notice much- would be better if VM increased the upload more instead of pushing for a higher faster speed.

In reply to a post by aj2703:
There is a page either on here or the VM website that gives you the planned upgrade dates for each area.


http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/12/33673162-100mbi...

http://shop.virginmedia.com/content/dam/allyours/pdf...

Just found that doing a quick search


just to let you guys no......

i was talking to one of the tech guys from VM yesterday and he told me that my area has been upgraded and goes live for increased upload and 100Mb on march the 1st....

on the list above it says that my cab would be ready on :

Cowcaddens
cowc
Sep-11

i told him this and he said that these dates are very loose and most will be enabled before these dates..

good news as the increased upload is something i have been looking forward to....

not sure if i will upgrade to 100Mb,not because of cost but i don't really think i will need it.

interested to hear from anyone that has upgraded to 100Mb,apart from the 10Mb upload,why do you feel that you need 100Mb and what will be your main use for it.

cheers guys wink

My upstream was upgraded early December against the scheduled Jan 2011. My 100Mbps is scheduled Sep 2011 but I won't be upgrading. If they'd done the free 20-30 upgrade a month earlier I wouldn't have upgraded from 20 to 50.



If you can't fix it with a hammer you've got an electrical problem.

We haven't got it where I am yet (Torquay) although I am going to call VM shortly and upgrade to 50Mbit, I thought since I get a free install then it makes more sense than paying £30 for the 30Mbit broadband (the way I see it, I'll cut down the paper billing and 24/7 calls which will cover the upgrade to 50Mbit).

When 100Mbit comes to Torquay I may go for it, the kids are using the Internet more especially for watching videos and things and I'm starting to notice that we're hitting the STM more.

I ran a speedtest on their 50MB laptop at Telford Centre couple of weeks ago (now in Kuala Lumpur), was pretty poor. Contention!!!!!!!
