Merry Xmas guys and gals!

OK, heres the score. I'm down for Xmas at mates in Brighton and yesterday I
connected/registered/installed his new NTL 600k BB service. The speed is absolutely unreliable.....ranging from anywhere between 5 to 50 kbytes!!! Also, we have to keep rebooting the bloody STB all the time.

Before I adivise him on calling CS, I just wondered if any other Brighton 'belles' are having the same terrible performance. His laptop is well within spec. Here are some other details:

Connection method = Ethernet > STB
STB = DITV-1000

I'll post any other network stats if you like, once I know what will be useful for anyone. Thanks in advance.
