Faster Upload speed

Hi all

My contract is coming up to finish shortly and I'm looking to get symmetrical speeds, How do I find out if this is available to me?

If its not available then ill need to move away from Virgin considering I could pay the same to another company and get the symmetrical speeds I desire. 

Cheers

Ryan

  • Is your existing connection FTTP or HFC (Coax)?

    Symmetrical speeds wouldn't be available over coax.

        What HUB do you have?

        Does it have a coax or fibre connection?

         

  • If your on 1130 you are like on Co-ax, you need to be on the 2 Gig Fiber to the home to get the faster upload.

    Unless you have a hub 5X you aren't on the network that provides symmetrical broadband, and there is no upgrade from legacy hubs either.
