Aventsparky, you work in Cust service in NTL? Are you aware that NTL suck big time? God you guys make me sick. I know its your job but honestly, that company is the devil.... DEVIL I say.
I don't work for them but here in D6 the service is great! 99% service is my normal score when I test it, NOT like the bad old days with IBB when it was often less than my original dial-up at 14.4 bits per sec!!!
Yes if you have 3Mb or 6mb with them, it will be doubled at
no extra cost. If you 1Mb, it will stay the same.
Finally 12Mb for €40 a month. Not bad considering
it's over a €100 a month with eircom
Maybe in Dublin they can live up to their promises, but in other parts of the country the really can't. I wouldn't trust them after what I have gone through and what alot of people are still having to deal with here in Cork and other less developed areas.
have been with them 2 years in cork city, bit rough early on but fantastic now, have a 6mb service and speed tests in the last week are coming in between 10 & 12mb, so check your service hopefully you'll be as suprised as me and delighted.

10Mb - 12Mb savage, maybe they upgraded their lines in cork before they do dublin, as far as i know Dublin will be seeing these speeds in june. New customers will get the speeds first to attract them of course.
We have 3MB NTL through a wireless router. Would that router be able to cope with the increased speeds? It says it's a 54MBps, so I'm assuming it would?

Yes no problem.
Your 3Meg is actually 3MBps not 3 Megabyte so your broadband has a long long way to go b4 ever taxing that router. The router only broadcasts the data from itself to your pc at 56Mbps. The data only gets to the router at 3Mbps.......slowwwww

HI. NTL/UPC/Chorus have revised their prices. The website is currently wrong.
The 6Meg (formally 3Meg) is 40 Euro per month.
The original 6 Meg (which will be 12 Meg soon) is approx 56 Euro. (this includes a phone also which is neat. cancel Eircom land line at 24Euro per month.
I needed a decent broadband for gaming on the xbox 360, and after being with clearwire for a year and a half, and now me da bought ibb, im just gonna pay the extra cash and get ntl in without the phone line. Its the ultra broadband of 12MBps and its only €46, thats not bad. Now I have to wait till the seventh of may to get it installed. Does anyone know when you book it that the box you can tick for (if there is an earlier appoinment we will call you) do they ever do this or is it just for show...here's praying that the next week or so flies in.
I've just switched from Eircom package with a 2 Mbps Dl, which was ok but not great. I've taken the NTL Ultra with phone line and current dl of 6 Mbps. This is due to increase to 12 Mbps in the Summer.
I'm in D14. The guy came out on Saturday morning and the changeover made with a Netgear Wireless Router.
After an initial issue over my browser not connnecting and NTL service as usual woeful, the system kicked in and I have too say ITS GOOD. Very good value - First 2 months half price and all equipment free. RECOMMENDED.
