Seems a bit tight ! Anyway, its the down that counts really :)

Depends what your doing, I now spend a lot of time away on business so for me upload is important (hence why I upgraded) so I can store all my content on my PC (getting a NAS soon) and stream it out to me on my laptop/iPad.

I got upgraded from 100/10 to 120/12 last night, As you can see VM gives a lot of extra fluff on the downstream, it's actually configured for 133Mbps though there is no fluff on the upload, it's configured for 12Mbps, with overheads you will never see the full 12.

I have heard rumors that they may be giving 20Mb as an extra upgrade for the upload if you pay a bit more but nothing official. I am sure 200 or 240Mb will be out in 2013 though.

Tell them to get it fixed then !

Been waiting for a repair for little over a year now, and they've promised to fix it a handful of times, but it's been delayed every single time. Waiting for BT to come and install Infinity later this month, they just launched in our area.

wow, I would have taken it further WAY before now, you're paying for a service you're not getting, they are breaking their site of the contract and I imagine are legally obligated to fix it

    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛 
    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
