Got to love Virgin cable.
 
Just had my speed doubled FOC:

https://www.speedtest.net/result/2212489343.png

10MB was fast enough for me anyway, now I have 20MB. Nothing feels quicker though, as I say 10MB is enough for most stuff anyway and tronces ADSL.


Six times faster than my works ADSL....or ten times faster on a slow/bad day. (2 to 3 MB...although we pay to get 8MB :mad: )

What the hell do you need that amount of bandwidth for? :lol1:

Anyhoo, Superhub is still shyte though...replaced the squeeling PSU and stuck it in modem mode; Much better :cool:

Ant 01 October 2012 08:51 AM

Erm......... :D

I've just been upgraded from 33Mbps to 50 for £1.50 less a month ;) Got to love that too.

Ali you'll notice the difference when you download stuff ;)
Music albums in a minute or less :thumb:

And you'll all notice how the latency has risen too, 10MB was faster for surfing than 20MB as the latency has gone up. You win with downloads, but lose with real world net use!

He doesn't just have a computer full of porn. He has a room full of computers full of porn. And another for cleanex.

ALi-B 02 October 2012 07:39 PM

Talking about latency and slow speed:

My works speed test results (yes,I'm still at work :mad: ):
https://www.speedtest.net/result/2216821536.png


Yeah its broken, but FFS. Its the same next door and thats a different ISP, and not a one off. Its more regular than a woman's blob.

And yeah, 10MB+ is only any good for streaming movies and porn :D...I'm not complaining ;)

I disagree. 25GB Bluray images download so much faster with a 100Mbit connection ;)

Is not faster when You watch Your gay movies:D

I know - brainy virgin generation.
they cut upload for a reason, s.h.i.t.e chip equipment

When few family members use it in the same time for example, one playing online, second streming movies,skype.How many times when is big traffic mainly weekends speed is terrible?
more power -bigger exhaust
faster broadband- similar upload to download
Business use ;videoconferencing or when building virtual enterprise network, medicine-long distance operations etc.

ScoobySteve69 11 October 2012 12:31 AM

I`m with Virgin, I get 2mb :lol1:

scooby red 11 October 2012 01:20 AM

Might be fast but still ****e. Virgin so unreliable for me , constantly dropping out. After a less than super hub and a couple of service eng visits im close to jumping ship.

Ant 11 October 2012 07:49 AM

4 years for me and never had a problem once.

no me neither. VM have been the most reliable BB provider I have ever used. as for the Superhub being crap I have only had to reboot it a couple of time since it went in over a year ago.

scooby red 31 October 2012 06:59 PM

Another engineer visit today , new hub and new connections. Left me with it ten times worse than before. Had to fit a new cable myself to make it useable. Another phone call now to these jokers.

scooby red 31 October 2012 07:02 PM

30.18 download and 2.84 upload on recent speed test. But don't mean it works ok!

chrisowe 03 December 2012 09:38 PM

Looks like I finally got my upgrade. Just after I received a letter saying they were going to increase my bill by £2 a month.
