Well sort of D-I-Y.. if you phone 'em up you can have your speed
upgraded for the same money. I've just had mine done from 750 to 2 Meg
and it rocks)

U can do it online, but you need to know your ntl username and
password...

I upgraded mine online last night, mucho speed now!


And mucho 'cap' (download limits) also?

Ok, not a problem if you just want yer emails pronto but a 1G bps you
would be surprised how quickly you can reach yer cap / day / month?

My daughter spends much of her evening / weekend on her webcam with
her mates / boyfriend, downloading music lyrics / music / tab for her
bass guitar and browsing eBay for things for me to buy her ;-(. I'm
often downloading drivers / patches / utils and a few hundred emails a
day (mostly spam tho) but some with large attachments (joke mpgs etc
from mates) and the missus get's emails with family photos etc.

So at 300K bps it *might* take 3 times longer (than 1G) .. that's
assuming we get the 1G over the entire Inet path though .. ?

No such thing as a free lunch etc?


1Gigabyte / day download "cap" on the 2Meg option. That's a lot of
capacity for the majority of internet users.
