Shabba, because I've been having problems with online gaming for weeks now (along with lots of others), and all that user could say is that we're all just a bunch of whingers for complaining...:rolleyes:

I work for NTL, and we ARE aware there is a problem, what we are not aware is the exact server or servers responsible, specifying proxies does seem to resolve in most cases.
If any of you can advise what you think is the problem with soemthing to back it up, I'll monitor the thread untill I go home at midnight.

If I get any update on what we have found I'll post that too.

cache3-lang.server.ntli.net:8080 appears to be better for me too.

Thats because our DNS servers have changed, and these havent given me a timeout in over an hour of constant ping.
Nslookup ...

> dns2.ntli.net

Non-authoritative answer:

BTW I'm not a network guru just a tech on the phone.

Is it DNS problems for everyone else or have I got something else?!

dont know if you can help, couple of times when it wasn't working (google that is) www.answerferret.com came up - never heard of it, is this a problem with my computer or just an odd going on because of ntl, it's never happened before and only happened a couple of times

No, it was the guy i mentioned earlier in the thread...
He called me "one of life's whingers" for complaining about problems with online gaming, that no-one in NTL seems to be bothered about fixing.
