having alot of problems here In Scunthorpe - North Lincs

Connection seems to drop without warning sometimes after 1 min other times after 5 for 10-30 secs at a time.

Cable Modem Lights all stay on during this, and the cable tv hasn't been having any problems. It occurs when im playing online games (get the no data from server error) when im using msn messenger (suddenly kicks me offline) and even when im web browsing, (pages dont get fetched for the brief time its messing around)

it started 2 days ago, and has now escalated to being so frequent thats its impossible to connect to games servers and at best i get 3 mins of msn chat b4 i have to re login.
Ive also gone through firewall logs and nothing really stands out.
i think im connected to the nottingham proxys.

anyone have any ideas?
