Hi people,
This is my first post here, basically im uploading a few binaries to a premium usenet server using my 1mb NTL line.
After a while, i get error messages from power-post stating that the upload has failed, whenever this occurs i have to physically reset the STB.

Its happend on a few premium servers, clara, astraweb and usenetserver.
tried to speak to tech support, but the woman on the line said use IE to connect to it. Im like, wtf the are you talking about? You cant use Internet Explorer to connect to an NNTP server. At which point she started harping on aboiut webspace???? Then i told her she didnt have a clue what she was talking about, and said she wasnt any help at all.

Is NTL capping uploads? And if so, why does it result in me having to reset the STB. Wasnt a problem in the past, i was a regular uploader to usenet, but now, well, it just plain sucks.

Any help/views/support would be appreciated.
TIA
