took 3mins for me to download patch, i guess sending those death threats to the GOA office finally produced more than a trip to the village shrink :)

It's a problem with one of the routers between NTL and GOA, it's effecting primarily NTL customers but is not effecting anything else i.e. downloads from none GOA websites etc.

Have to say no probs at all, took 15 mins on ISDN 64k.

ADSL email today saying they coming to my area in June offering me to signup :great:

and also must be the 1st patch I have had from GOA with no problems, no hassles. A thumbs up to the GOA guys as well. About time :great:

Gone 2am and still unable to download update, it starts to d/l but at less than 1kb a sec before tailing off and stopping altogether. no problems d/l from other sites etc and speed tests show up fine. have checked the server addresses in the update.dat are ok.

PS Are there any other NTL customers having the same problem? (Located NE England)

PPS Acei where did u get that info on the possible NTL link and my problem?

Average of 170kbyte/s on my 8megabit connection, but then again I live in Holland (still bad though seeing that 800kbyte/s is possible :)

Forums, my own issues with NTL, traceroute results from several people, one of the routers is having major packet loss, my auto-patcher kept starting and stopping i had to get a friend to send me the biggest patch files as my patcher kept stopping on them.

Just got this from right now literally 20 mins ago

Hello,

It seems that there is a big problem for the english servers, our technical team is working on this.
Yours sincerely,

PS Can anyone who is on a 600k cable modem NTL customer and has been sucessful in d/l patch let me know what area of the uk they r in , ive got a list of the NTL proxys so im going to try another area proxy address. Not sure if it will help but its worth a try.

They say it's not their fault it's a router server in between GOA and NTL they said they will try to contact the router administrator about it... although this literally took over an hour to explain to them, they kept trying to fob me off.
