If your internet connection is fine while using a proxy, but dire otherwise, then I'd guess the problem is with the local transparent proxy NTL forces you to use. Renewing your IP lease would have no effect if this is the problem, I'm afraid, and nor would reinstalling your drivers etc. Manually specifying a proxy server is the only way to get past a b0rked transparent proxy, AFAIK. If you were finding your service was useless no matter what you did, there could be all manner of things wrong which people more technically minded than me would have to advise you about.
Have you contacted NTL at all?
