To say I'm pee'd off after the week I've had with NTL (3 faults in this area over 3 days) a total failure to install my modem correctly and now this - utter crap
If you are in the Romford Area and getting sub 56k dial up modem speeds its because the UBR is full, the guy said it would be escalated to support but it may take a while to fix.
great.... |
thanx for the info  , that explains why i might be getting slow speeds and i'm very near Romford |
Before you assume that is the reason, please bear in mind that although you live near romford, you may not be attached to a romford UBR.
