We really need a quicker and more direct way of reporting these proxy errors, I've so far spent over a month with my own personal queries and only today was the Poplar fault with my servers escalated to Network management, I added the steampowered.com site to my problem report but it will probably take another month before that one is looked at.
NTL really need to sort these proxies out, (and Cogent over 450 ping tonight and dead slow to all Cogent routed sites - although thats off topic for here), these errors are far too frequent now and for steampowered.com to be failing on what looks like a good proportion of their network (if my testing of about 10 proxies is anything to go by) is quite frankly pathetic.
NTL's network is pretty poor at the moment - add to this the terrible 'channel 7' problem with their tv, and the delaying of new channel launches because their network is rubbish is just beyond belief - they should be paying us to use their service !
ok [rant over]
