Info above is from the connection tab. This is the first time I've seen this without the proxy server, is this good?

Re: No proxy server
 

i have only been with ntl 2 months but have never had a proxy :)

Re: No proxy server
 

proxies on NTL are 'transparent', so you may, or not, realise you have one

what does the 'connection' link in the forum toolbar report?

mine says

You appear to be an ntl Customer
Your IP address **
You do not appear to be using a Proxy Server

but I'm served by Nottingham, and proxies have been 'off' for a while, here ;)

Re: No proxy server
 

Im in grimsby and served by nott :)

Re: No proxy server
 

The Nottingham proxies have been turned off for quite a few months now. I hope they never see the light of day again. :)

Re: No proxy server
 

W00t :) good news. Wonder if thats why 24x7 i always get near 10mb speeds?

Re: No proxy server
 

Stoke (baguley) seems to be off too

Re: No proxy server
 

This is indeed good news. Ntl's proxys only affected port 80 traffic but what a difference it makes not having them switched on.

Long may it stay this way.

Proxies in the Luton area are "alive and well" :(
