Broadband upgrade

 

An article popped up on BBC this morning about ntl and their plans for the near future.  The good news is that all users will be upgraded to 10Mb by the end of 2006 - all at no extra cost!  This can only be good for XBox live sessions where it still sometimes struggles with my current 2Mb connection. 

Of course, now I can’t wait, but our current speed works perfectly fine for browsing the web and email etc.  The extra speed will help downloading and streaming - the reason for also increasing the cap to 75Gig a month.

However, there is no mention of upload speeds increasing…  I hope they will, as that is probably the bottleneck for online gaming with ntl.
