Hi,

Just interested in the current state of the NTL cable network, is there much investment going into it and if not how overloaded is it becoming?

I'm noticing more and more people having problems with connections, slow pings etc etc.

What bothers me the most is that the last NTL engineer that visited my house said that not much general maintenance is being done on the network because most of the engineers are dealing with house calls.

He even went as far as saying that in Leicester at least many of the problems are resulting from the need to install new fibre.

Any NTL engineers out there, what are your views on this?
