quick update guys.

engineer came at 930 ish on sat morning. very nice guy, offered him a drink etc he wanted cold water happy days...

he put something on the cable under brown box outside and drove to green box. came back and handed me a short wire with an f-connector type on end.. he said theres a souvenir for you... he said wrong size connector and loose in cabinet, hes replaced.. i can keep it... i said thanks lol

he then rebooted modem and power levels down to around 3-4 and downloaded a few demos from the virgin demos page and acheived around 4.5mb/sec which is a massive improvement, still not 50mb but im sure its around the 40mb mark after all other traffic etc which is beleive is "acceptable" - i assume there is nothign else i can do to help this?

otherwise thanks to moldova and others for following this thread and helping where possible..

thanks

Craig
