You can hear the next excuses already though - oh you are using a long ethernet cable, that's why your speeds are bad now

I think I plunged more for the router so that I could say "right, you accused my router of being a problem, so I've bought one you recommend". An expensive little test, but other than changing providers - which I am the closest to doing than I have ever been, I was stuck for what to try.

I am really missing my online gaming. Heck, it even takes me almost a minute to sign into Xbox Live at the moment, never mind play any games online.
if u cant get it sorted do what a lot of others are doing switch to ADSL. There are a lot of good quality ISPs out there on ADSL, admittingly not as fast than what Virgin Media claim to be but they r a damn sight more reliable at the best of times.
