Full truth – I pay for 1mb, when my conneciton works I connect @ 2mb… but the past 5 weeks I’ve been dl’ing @ 1-4kbps… with multiple packets lost to their DNS servers and rebooting the box only means you can’t see the DHCP server for hours too =/
Those certain traffic-shaping trial areas… do you know which areas those are? They’re the UK 😛 They’re just taking their time getting around to switching it all on…
Your own half truths banged out as fact too though implying Branson had anything to do with ntl: !! He sold them Virgin Mobile for hard cash and a few measly % of their assets, nowhere near enough to be in any kind of control. Anything that Virgin Media does, it does without him. The only reason they’re using the Virgin name at all is to try and piggy back on Branson’s success 😛
Look you little cock! Re-read this thread! Go on! Come back when you have finished…
Read it yet??? no.. i mean read.. not just skim it for vague ideas like you normally do and then talk crap for 10 minutes.
Right.. now can you point out at any point in this thread where I say that Richard Branson is in any way connected with Virgin Media? The only time I refer to Branson in any way at all is when Snell made a neat side swipe at his tax dodging antics and I made a glib remark about him being president.
and then some odious little twerp come barging in with his size 10 boots about rumors regarding traffic shaping on the NTL network (for information in the swansea trials of this see here http://www.newswireless.net/index.cfm/article/3160). Certainly the 10 mb connections are being marketed as unlimited but i cant see this being sustainable during peak time which i think i fair enough myself
quite frankly i don’t know shit about virgin :ntl : telewest etc which is why you will see i have not made any claims about anything in this whole thread.
what is really pissing me off is people coming in here and stamping out x, y and z as truth and fact when it is clearly a mixture of speculation and rumor
as to your assertion that your 1mb cable connects at 2mb i find very hard to believe as with cable techs you get what your modem has been told to give you and not the best available as seen in the adsl world but i really find it hard to believe a word you say these days..
oh and someone asked how much the 20 mb will be : at present the 10 bed is 34 quid a month and this will rise to 37 when you are upgraded.

Bear in mind branson doesn’t have shit to do with ntl: apart from selling them Virgin Mobile, you shouldn’t be downloading movies you don’t legally own in one format or another and that they have introduced traffic shaping -_- If you hammer you connection @ max speed for 20mins you get capped to half speed for the rest of the day… not to mention the probl;ems thousands ofpeople have been having with their connections (myself included) since the rebranding =/
will you be quiet!
it is hard to take moralising wank from someone who drives a bike like a self confessed death waiting to happen.
and the traffic shaping is only applied as a trial in certain areas – i can have my connection running at 10 meg all day (bar buys periods) no bother what so ever.
again half truth banged out as fact
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
dont do it!!!!!
i got a pair of these a fe years ago!! they are cool for 2 minuts and then fuck all use after that!!!
the website who rave about them are all on commision – dont do it
now dont get me wrong – the original battlefield looked so fucking fantastic with these on it really did feel like you were there – you could look aorund 3d models – it is amazing BUT…
the crosshairs are now floating in mid air.. you cant aim and after a few mins you realise you cant actually play
useless.. totally useless
