They are doing upgrades at the moment, so expect some lag.

Yes I was getting constant ld's last night as well. Made RvR impossible.

Ironically my BB never ld'd, just me.

In the end I gave up and watched a movie.

While I don't use it myself, a number of people in the guild have been having connections problems - while using NTL > MMO

Aye NTL Notts seems abit bad right now.

I did phone them tho, and the Tech Support Centre is in India or Wales, flip a coin and thats what you get, and i got India and the bloke on the other end who i could harldy understand says " unscrew the cable from the wall and screw it back on and it will work" The phone went down, balls to that.

So after all that, no one is still none wise to what is going on with NTL and these bandwidth fluctuations.

Found this complaint letter about NTL on my HDD - I think it might sum-up some peoples feelings about the lag issues!!

Apologies in advance for the formatting but the original PDF was too large for the upload restrictions, and it also contains a bit of strong language!!





Enjoy.....
