hey guys, I am in Cuffley, Hertfordshrie and am connected to the local Cheshunt server, and its a bloody joke.

in doing a online speed test at adslguide.org.uk it gave me the following results just now:

Downstream974 Kbps (121.8 KB/sec)1051 Kbps (inc. overheads)Upstream4 Kbps (0.5 KB/sec)4 Kbps (inc. overheads)

now the Downstream is okay, websites do tend to take a couple of minutes at times to load up but as for Upstream, my upstream should be 220-240 Kbps, NOT 4!!!! what the hell are NTL playing at? I've phoned them 7 times now and got absolutely nowhere with my upstream, I am about to phone them for the 8th and then I am phoning billing to get my last bill halved or refunded, I've had enough of NTL and their poor service :-/
