One thing that is beginning to be a real pain - eBay! It's just so slow - sometimes the pages never load and need a refresh. I thought eBay was just like this for everyone until I used a mates machine on another broadband service and it was really quick.
My modem SNR etc all checks out ok...

Any suggestions?

Quite a few people have this problem, James, and it often turns out to be a proxy issue. See
Robin Walker's proxy page . There's a lot of information on proxies here, but the essence is to learn how to set a different one, and to look further down for a list of ntl proxies. Post back here again if you have trouble with this, and let us know how you get on.
And welcome to the forum!
