I made 10nl today.

I suspect you'll get a lot of the same advice I would. Stick to your current game until you have a decent sample to tell you how it's going. After you have some number of hands (I don't know, like 10k?) go through your results in PT or whatever you use and see if there are any adjustments to be made.

Most of all, if shit hits the fan, know when to move back down.

As for the specifics of 100nl, I hear a lot of people saying that it's sometimes even fishier than 50nl.

congrats on moving up.

i never played 50NL FR, so I cant talk much about adjustements. beware 10/6-ish setfarmer, look for opportunities to squeeze and play more b/f than c/c

XTR, did you play 6max until 100FR?

I can tell you my experience as I've played 25NL, 50NL and I'm playing 100NL, hoping to move to 200NL soon

Actually, as I mentioned some time ago in another post, the players in 100NL are actually worst in average (I'm not joking!). In my experience, they are less tighter then 50NL players and will pay you off your goods hands more often.
At 50NL I was running like 12/8. I'm also running like that at 100NL.
The only adjustment I made from 50NL were:
- 2 barril bluff more often
- 4bet with AKo against 15/10 villains

GL!!

I'm finding (after only 8k hands at 100NL) that this is true. There seems to be a few more people with HUDs, or who are paying attention enough to notice when you've been acting like a maniac. Tables where I've been blind-stealing, isolating limpers/c-betting tons, and look 30/25, are the ones I get paid more often with my monsters. Unfortunately there are a few more people smart enough to play back at you, but to stations this means "start calling you down light"

But yeah....redzilla. I just made the jump a few weeks ago and everyone said to not change a thing, so I didn't and I've been running well. Started at $2200, and I'm up to $3800...
