    Who's on NTL broadband?

    Anyone on NTL Broadband and have the 1mb (1.5mbit now) service?

    Do you use a cable modem or your STB?

    What sorta speeds u gettin?

    Am on a STB and maxing out around 178k/sec..........poor for 1.5mbit :down:

    Think the prob lies in using STB instead of a CM.....the engineer sed wen he swapped my box that these boxes were only rated for 700k!!!!!!! So using them on 1.5mbit is daft cos will hardly achieve max speeds :evil:

    I thought 187.5 was the maximum speed you could get out of a 1.5Mb connection. 178 isnt that bad, is it?
