NB-I've never heardof Metronet, but I'm sure if you'd gone with one the higher profile DSL ISPs, then you wouln't have had this problem.

What made you go with Metronet as opposed to Tiscali/Pipex/BT etc? (they also have 'Light User' packages)


Actually ADSL Can be very pants using anyone of the above mentioned ISPs certainally some exchanges are becoming very busy and contention ratios are pants...which might show why some get terrible service on ADSL.

Certainally two of the above BT and Tiscali offer poor service Pipex is ok but at certain times every ADSL Service can and often does behave much worse than a 56k modem service.......some would say, including myself.......the above are worse than any service ive recived from ntl.

Of course everyone has different experiences......

The point I always try to make is that ntl can be great for some people, just because certain users of this site had a poor service doesnt mean everyone does.....why do people have to keep telling us ntl are crap and cant we decide for ourselves?? I have made my mind up after experienceing ADSL (upload aside) it is pretty pants compared to what im used to, but maybe im the lucky one of the 1 million ntl customers
