I'm not sure that this is the problem in your case (in fact there's a good chance that it isn't) but if you are constantly maxing your upload then it may well be a contributing factor.
Is there a way to fix this on my end ?


If there any way i can check my computer settings before phoning ntl again about the problem, that way i can say there is nothing wrong on my end
