When will people stop accusing ntl of having a sub-standard network?! There is nothing WRONG with their network. Contention is a DESIGN FEATURE, if it goes slow, you are experiencing it. Infact, ntl have one of the best core networks in the country as far as shifting IP data goes. The only other on the same league as them is the Joint Academic NETwork, and both are well over-specced for the amount of data they carry. I believe telewest have a similar topology and speed, but on a smaller scale.
Stop moaning, do the sums, and get a life. 2mbps leased lines cost the best part of a grand a month, so that's what you should be expecting to pay for that level of service. You pay nowhere near that, you pay for a SHARED service. So get used to SHAREING it, and stop moaning.
