I am having problems connecting to XBL. Everything works fine Cables, IP and DNS. However it will not connect to XBL. I have tried power cycling the modem for 5 mins and have tried using my PC MAC address and still NOTHING. If anyone here can help me sort out this problem before the end of the night. I would be eternally grateful since I really want to play the Outrun 2 demo
Now for my Rant.
I have had NTL ever since the XBox Live beta testing started nearly 2 years ago. In that time I have only had a few problems with NTL, nothing major. However I have grown bored of switching cables and have sat in front of my PC for many months not even touching XBL (not many releases have gathered my attention) until now. About 3 months ago, NTL told me that the charges had changed for XBL customers and that £2 extra a month would cover it. I said ''Fair enough'' since I knew I would be using XBL towards the end of the year. However looking through these forums tonight I have noticed that the person on the other end of the line at NTL lied to me. It was for another IP address which has not been supplied nor has the split connector (I'm assuming thats what it is) this has really p*ssed me off and would like my money refunded since even though i've paid those extra £2 I have not been able to connect. Trying to contact NTL services is not always easy since i'm at full time work and have not always got access to a phone for personal calls and even if I have I cant always be by my modem to check if the changes have taken effect. This is ridiculous and would like to see what NTL can do for me since i've been conned out of money I did not need to spend. *RANT OFF* sorry if I came across as an arse, but im sure anyone else in my position would feel the same
