re: pings - I'd check your stateful firewall or the load on your connection when you did that traceroute, 3405ms -> 10ms -> 20ms is not the ntl network
That's sygate software firewall. Have to enable traceroute program to access the internet hence the mega hops. Used to use it myself till I realised it chewed up 20% of an Athlon 2.2ghz doing stateful packet inspection PC to PC traffic at 95mbit/s.
