The routing definately is staying inside the UK - it goes up to Manchester and then down to ThamesSide which is the name they give to their network which passes through their site by the Thames in London.

The IP addresses maybe look American but that's probably because Cable and Wireless are American and a global company and cannot always allocate blocks of addresses to certain areas.

The site seems fine here . .

Can't say the same for the ntl network though - 3405ms is extremely high
