Toying with this but can't see it being worth the extra tenner a month. Very happy on 50mbit and not being throttled for the time being.

As soon as 50mbit start getting treated like 10 & 20mbit connections then I'll upgrade, not sooner.

I do a lot of downloading via Astraweb using SSL conection and being able to download a dvd in 4 minutes is worth the tenner to me

10mb upload - that's fucking brilliant.

Ooh you are in West Yorkshire, might have to have a look see if I can get it. Are there any hardware changes or is it done behind the scenes???

Just swapped out the modem and D-Link router for an all-in-one Superhub
He tested the line, changed the attenuator for a +5 and then had to get Virgin to connect it to the network via his hand held tablet.
Took about 20 mins

opps

they are already hitting the 50 meg,it's pi$$ing me right off.

tenner extra you say hmmmm i'm feeling the pinch already as it is,think i 'll have to wait

*sigh* my mobile broadband solution doesn't always seem so great. I am happy when I see a steady 400kb/s

So wants that then 48 quid a month for just broadband can download a film in under a minute bet 100mb is impressive

50 isnt currently being throttled as far as i know. unless the T&C have changed?

50 IS being throttled I'm afraid.

10mb upload - that's fucking brilliant.

not really i get a tad more LOL

Alot of moneys for a service that you wont be able to use for long before they start fecking with you

50 IS being throttled I'm afraid.

Maybe but not on port 443

Grabbed loads over the past few months and it hasn't skipped a beat.

sweet mate!
