ANd we play games over direct modem connection, so if it was my modem, how would we do that?.... Different parts of the company have different ntl servers... obviously i am in the shit hole of shit holes..... i see no reason for their 'service' to vary in different areas....AND when customers DO complain about the awful service, they never do ANYTHUING about it.... they just leave it go!! so that explains why i will turn them into Watchdog.... and dont think i wont. And as for your connection, that also explains that the different areas of the country vary from the service quality. because coup has a constant of 28k and u have 40 apparently....i dont know what i have because it always says 57 on mine for some STUPID reason, and i can never get the real speed.... my verage download speed is 1kbs.... do u understand now? infact it just now disconnected!!!!!

i never get any probs with ntl eitheraltho some stuff u describe is true. like the help lineLOL!!!and never bein onnected 4 2 hours. but change if u h8 it so much and stop whining..or get a better computer ffs. mine is crap 2 but c'mon

BT is 34.99 a month for dsl i THINK, could be cable! bottom line we're screwed both ways!

Hmm, u seem a bit confused here:

1. Ntl's cable service is actually 72kb/s (600k) download and 16kb/s (128k) upload
2. U can buy a cable modem, as I bought mine, so its £20 a month, not £25
3. I think BT is £40, maybe wrong, but I know for sure that BT definately dont do cable, only adsl

which is what i did say.

ntl auto disconnects after 2h it actually says that some where in contract or some thing, They are claiming cause some ppl just connect and forget to diconnect, also claim it's to let others connect, but all it does for me is just piss me off, and make my modem make odd noises in the middle of the night as it automaticaly reconnects. I recon most ppl just auto reconnect so the 2h limit just pisses every one off doesn't free anything up. As does the 5min dead time and your off rule. Cause if i'm writing something big online then it takes over 5 min and i get disconnected and click send and sometimes lose what i just wrote, and that pisses me off loads.

Does any one else find their PC is unable to reconnect and needs a restart if you are downloading When it disconects after 2h?

-ak

(just disconnected as i sent this, but luckily this site is not so stupid as another.com or loads of others, and i can return to what i typed with the back button)
