- NTL Upload speeds
- Posted by Simon Higgs on September 17th, 2004
Does anyone know the upload speeds for NTL set-top box cable service. In
particular the 750K one.

I *think* it may be 128KBit but it may be more - I work on XDsl which is
256KBit or 288KBit according to the box of lies...

750k = 128k Upload
1.5mb = 256k Upload

I heard a rumour that 128 can possibly be 256 in some areas, to account for
the STB signal consumption, but a safe bet is 128 upload. Not the biggest,
but you don't really need a big upload speed unless you're uploading files
to 'yourself' on another PC ( I don't mean p2p) - OR if you're actualy using
P2P software, and if you're probably uploading/downloading copyrighted
material. But who cares really

to send it and then send again to sync local and remote folders.
I've just used adslguide speed-test and it shows I have a 74K upload
speed.

I have a mate on NTL 750 with whom I use the "video conference" facility of
MSN Messenger. If he is generating *any* other traffic other than this
(e.g. visiting a web page, checking email), his transmitted picture and
sound gets badly distorted; I suspect this is due to his poor 128 upload.
No such problems on my 512/256 ADSL set up.
