The "fixed" to which I was referring was the fact that you would be using one cache exclusively if you define it manually. That means that your traffic isn't load-balanced optimally (for either you or ntl) across the cache farm or protected against a cache being unavailable.
Of course that's of little interest to you if you are having problems . All I can suggest is that you continue to log any issues with ntl with as much detail as possible.

I'm guessing that is basis of your objection to using proxies - the flipside of course being that they usually allow ISPs to scale internet services whilst minimising costs.
