I don't need more than 10MB right now, what I want is to be able to browse the net and up and download files.

Some of the problems at the moment seem to be caused by a painfully slow upload. When I first joined NTL I had 512k download and 128k upload (ratio of 4:1). Now I have (when it working) 10MB download and 512K upload (ratio of 20:1).

STOP increasing the download and increase the upload a bit!


I agree, I'm on 10Mb and get similar stability and speed to the recent quotes. A 4:1 ratiofor DL:UL would sort out my p2p & surfing needs quite nicely.
