Has Ntl Increased Its Speeds

[callum]

Does anyone know if the upload speeds are being increased?

Edit - It's not

Why is the upstream not being upgraded?
As with all Broadband technologies, ntl’s broadband services have higher downstream speed than upstream. This is because most of the activities that our customers use the Internet for, such as reading emails, downloading software, surfing the web require a high downstream speed but do not require a high upstream speed.

Due to this we have concentrated on the section of the service that will make most impact to you as a customer. This means that you will benefit from faster downloads of music and software and higher quality videos online.

The upstream speed will therefore remain at the same levels
– 64K for 300K service
– 128K for the 750K service
– 256K for the 1.5Mb service
