NTL BB in Ranelagh (Bring it on!!!)

    Just had the soundest bloke in NTL out working on my cables. He re-installed the lot and was actually genuinely helpful and willing to do stuff. This is as opposed to the two guys who came before him.

    Anyway this is all great but what does it mean for NTL BB. Well, he said that the signal is there for the internet and that its perfect. However, he also said quite rightly 'there's no point in them being able to talk to you if you can't talk back to them'.

    The area is not set up for the 'reverse' as he called it. I told him that as soon as that flyer came in the door I would be straight on to them to order it. So, being the sound bloke that he was he proceeded to ensure that all my cabling was of sufficient standard to accept BB.

    So it looks like there is no problem with the cabling in the area really?

    (My cabling had been damaged by some f*cker with a blow torch working on the roof.)

    The cabling is all one way in Ranelagh, i.e. not upgraded. So no BB for you.
