I just bought a wireless router so i was looking to switch from a usb to ethernet connection.

I had alot of problems switching over to other to ethernet which ive now found out seems to be the ethernet connector in the modem itself. I have to plug the ethernet cable into the back of the modem and keep hold of the clip in order for the led to come on and for me to get internet access if i let go or knock the modem then the led goes off and so does the internet.

Ive tried two different ethernet cables both with the same issue the problem is now is recently ive been trying to get my modem replaced by ntl due to not getting the full 10 meg speed. The modem i have is ambit 100 will ntl check the logs and use this against me if i call them about the problem?.

Also any recommendations on how i can fix the problem myself?

Thanks
Darren
