R3DG3CKO ROB Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Yup, I'm on 10mg it's currentlly £34.99 but is going up by £2 for the 20mg... Bit confused actually... My mate is on the 10mg service and got a call offering him digital TV for an extra £2!!! I haven't had a call like that... My boss has just swapped to a new Virgin Media Package icluding his Mobile (sim card only), House phone, Broadband and Digital on demad TV all for £40!!! I really need to look into changing as I'm paying nearly that just for the Broadband now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cashpoint Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 How did you get an upload speed that they dont do? Based on single 4mb file was transfer from home to work in approx 30 ish secs over L2PT VPN connection Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the details though, that's only the very basic spec of everything, 512M BB I think, no free mins or txts on the phone - it's a pretty crap deal I thought!

JustGav Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 How do you do this some more info please wouldnt mind having a look Tis no secret really that one... you can't get access to anything.. All configuration information on cable modems is downloaded from virgin during start up. They have something built into the firmware which prevents TFTP configs from being pushed up by the ethernet side. There are ways around it, but I've never been bothered to try get round it to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
