I noticed it - not as bad as before - this is what I noticed though...
I was uploadin my web site and FTP would stop dead at random times, pause for 5 mins or so then carry on (as FTP does anyhow). To be honest I've given up even complaining about it - starting to loose count now at the same old problem.

It seems to have passed now though (friday 17th Sep) - last 3/4 times it was pretty bad but this time ive not noticed it as much, then again I aint been on MSN or played Online Game, mainly uploading files to a web site (small - loots of them) and changed proxy - this def speeded up the net - pages now near instant, only wish NTL would remove proxys.

One i using found on here : 80.3.96.40 Port 8080

Oh points to note though, I was on 1.5mbit when we had the last few problems, ive now downgraded to 750 - not sure if this matters one tot like..
