Ok i suppose for only 10Mb broadband

done.....

Nice one, but how have you got a ping of 38 thought it would be lower somehow?

I'm stuck with a 16/3Mbit line atm. I hate my grandmother on this point tough, she recently invested in fiberoptics in her house having a 100/100Mbit line and all she uses it for is TV, phone and delivering bills. Such a waste of good bandwidth -_-' Can't wait for the fiberoptics to be available here as well.

fuck knows...... the engineer [some twat that just comes round and unplugs old 50mb modem and plugs 100mb in] Rolling Eyes

said to give it 48 hours untill its ready.. i said ready, fuck off.

if im paying for 100/10 i want 100/10. anyway ill tell you what me a virgin talked about tomorrow Evil or Very Mad

I canlt wait Very Happy

Generally telling the person whoes been sent to help you to feck off isnt very productive for you Rolling Eyes

I hate you. Virgin Media gives me the speed but a very unstable ping.........

i'm happy with mine..

just saw the advert and ill be on 120mb soon: http://doublespeed.virginmedia.com/?buspart=DoubleSpeeds_2

theyre upgrading eveyone to double but the 100mb customers will be getting a discount and an extrat 20mb down. hope they stick a bit more on the up Rolling Eyes

edit:... just signed into my virgin media and ill be getting an extrat 2mb up so ill have upto 12.

"Even faster broadband, for less

We've decided to boost broadband speeds for all our fibre optic customers, so that they can do more online than ever.

What we're going to do is boost your broadband speed - which is already the fastest widely available in the UK - to up to 120Mb downstream (and 12Mb upstream), and lower the cost of your broadband package to match the price of our up to 50Mb Broadband XXL package.

To boost your broadband we'll need to upgrade our network all around the country, area by area. Introducing 120Mb is going to take us a little longer than the other speeds. We'll start work in the summer and let you know when you can expect your area to be ready closer to the time.

Your price reduction will happen in April, and we'll be in touch in a few weeks with more details about that - there's no need to contact us for more information."

nothing that has bolt's face on it can be a good thing.. Rolling Eyes

Lucky bastards, the best I can get is 50/10 I think Sad

I think the days of wackin off to your speedtest results are long gone TBH
anything over 512 is ok for the majority of games

the only real benefit is claw can DL his pron much quicker Rolling Eyes
