Re: Internet Keeps going offline for a few mins - NB, Problem has returned
 

Well actually it did take me a few attempts to post it but it was nothing to do with my connection more to do with the fact i had to strim out the maximum amount of smilies and images used.

Still stick with my original thoughts and post a new thread with your problems and hope it gets picked up by a passing NTL person and escalated.

:D

Okay.. that wasn't good. My connection was dead for two days and it's only just come back. I hope NTL fixed the problem and it wasn't actually related to it getting worse..

Dunno about anyone else, but it's come back for me. Goes off for a few hours, comes on for a couple of minutes, and repeat.

have you checked the diagnostics on the cable modem? to see whats going on

Re: Internet Keeps going offline for a few mins - NB, Problem has returned
 

Yep, done all that. As far as the modem, router, and PC are concerned, everything is fine. Something of NTL's is completely buggered in Scunthorpe..

Hmmm odd - as lack of posts by me suggests that ive not had any problems since the last bout (while ago i think) - As a suggestion - if you can force a New Ip , see if that fixes it .. if your on a router, chnage MAC by one digit, reboot the lot :)

I just noticed very choppy performance in mohaa online game, was ok yesterday. Web browsing seemed laggy too, some sites timeing out.

Re: Internet Keeps going offline for a few mins - NB, Problem has returned
 

Ive have a similar problem as described by various people above..

Long pauses (up to 10 seconds) when playing games sometimes leading to loss of service. Cable modem reboot seems to fix it temorarily. Slow browsing etc...

I was told by Tech services that the UBR is over subscribed. There are 518 people on it. How average is that? Anyone know.

Engineer booked to come out.....
