Didn't seem to make any difference when I disabled it.
You know you asked me earlier if I'd updated the drivers for the NIC? Well, I've learned something, never trust windows when it says you have the most up to date drivers. I went to the intel download site and found there are much newer drivers for my card and it completely solved the speedtest upload error. Now all speedtests work as they should, and that's even with auto channels. Unfortunately it didn't solve my acronis true image issue so I'll go join their forum and ask. It may or may not be my NIC, but it's all set up correctly as far as I can see.
 
Looks like ill be upgrading from 10MB to 60MB for no extra cost.

Called up the other day to see what they could do in regards to upgrading my broadband.
They bumped it up to 60MB and I cancelled my phone which would only save me £2 Per Month. But had to pay £40 for the Superhub - Thought fair enough.

Got a call today from retentions. I am now keeping the phone line at no cost getting the superhub/install free and one month free now paying £25 per month. Seems OK.

Only thing that concerns me is the amount of complaints about the superhub and an engineer coming to mess my cabling up.

Makes no difference mate really since everyone will be forced to use it when channel bonding goes live and its happening soon!!
 
Spent an hour pn the phone with Technical support as my speed test reports were showing a download speed of between 0.52 and 8MB (0.52 download on a 100MB conection is quite an acheivement! :S) I was only on Youtube and web browsing!

Anyways new Superhub being sent out which they tell me should 'resolve' this.
 
We've just today had our 100mb VM broadband set up but we're not actually getting even half the speed we're paying for, anyone know why this could be? Sorry I'm an amateur when it comes to networking.

 
had mine upgraded automatically earlier this week. never got a superhub. Seems fine. Boths these screenies in the early evening. Manchester M28.



 
Connecting to VM bristol BS6 next wednesday... after a year in halls with the frankly nuts 100meg/100meg Resnet setup, I'm hoping it's not going to be too much of a downgrade!
