I don't know whether this is an NTL technical issue or whether they are deliberately restricting the bandwidth to usenet connections.
I have never had a problem with easynews any time of day or night. I get 10mb perfectly fine. http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/at...2&d=1131496035 Oh well - Bill beat me to it
