You can upgrade your NTL Broadband connection for free now. Going from 750k to 2mb and 1.5meg up to 3mb. The 300k users cannot upgrade right at the moment.
To upgrade go to http://www.ntlworld.com/data-feeds/e...tierMigration/
It only takes about a minute and im cruising at 370kb/s right now :01: Also 3mb users got an upload upgrade, however only up to 350k which means 40-45kb/s uploading.
Are they going to cap it though peerzy to 15Gb a month.???? :(Quote:

Yes they removed the charge. Its free.
I rang them up before i upgraded to ask about the cap.They said that it`s always been capped at 1GB a day.I then asked them what if i went over my monthly allowence and they just said that you get a talking to if you abuse it but the FBI are`nt gonna come round to your house. :lol:
You are on a 1GB cap a day before the upgrade anyway, they dont give a shit.
I always thought that NTL was uncapped for some reason. :dry:Quote:

The new uploads speeds are meant to be
1Mb - 100K upstream
2Mb - 200K upstream
3Mb - 300K upstream

I wonder if you could use your allowence in a day. :ph34r:
I forgot the good part :D
Looks like it will be ok for a few months anyway.Quote:
Q. What will we do if a customer reaches their usage allowance?
We will not be checking usage allowances until later this year. We will get in touch with customers directly when we start to check their usage - information and alternative options will be provided to customers when usage allowances are exceeded. In the meantime we will continue to run campaigns with heavy users.

The million dallar question is if you don`t use your monthly allowence could they add it on at the end.Like a rollover. :blink:Quote:

I thought the 1mb was capped at 3gb a month and 2mb and 3mb will be capped at 1gb a day :blink:Quote:
