do you not see the i.p. you are trying to connect to ???? , if you find out what it is then all you need to do is open a command prompt and type tracert < the real i.p. address > without the arrows , post back if you need more help :)

ive hightlighted where the main jumps are & there off the NTL network

Can you post back with a trace route from your NTL connection & your BT connection if possible?

Re: gaming in basingstoke

ntl and bt take same route when they leave there network so why is ntl having probs and wont admit it

it's a bit messy, but you can see that the problems don't start until the trace moves out of NTL 'territory' i.e. after hop 9.

That's ntl for you I'm afraid-but.....you need to provide ntl with hard evidence that the fault lies with their network, & having just done a Trace Route to the server you gave earlier, I'm not so sure it does.
