I guess a lot of people are thrashing their connection at the moment testing speeds and such, I know I downloaded more than average after the upgrade came through to test.
Just hope the new toy experience doesn't last long. I'm suprised there arn't any other threads on here from people who were on previously borderline UBR's complaining, so well done NTL for their network holding out so well. I guess I'll hold off any more compliments till the automatic upgrades go through  . |
Well a BIG turnaround for me on this one and a lot of grovelling appologies to be made
I play a lot of online gaming on 1 server in particular (US). Since the upgrades were rolled out my connection has been diabolical, pings of 180 to 200 are not uncommon. I cannot beleive it is a coincidence that it happened all of a sudden when it has been stable for years. What are the chances that it is people hammering there connections for all they are worth?, If this is the case then Bring on the caps i was anti cap but this has made me realise that some users do make it worse for others, and that cannot continue. So appologies to all concerned if i offended anyone in previous threads on my anti cap stance.
