I have 2mb bb and up until recently (sunday 5th Feb 2006) everything run great well done ntl.

since then had probs just with web pages. playing online Counterstrike source brill 19-24 latency (ping) great and responsive. come in here and someone in another thread said try newsgroups for fast download so got x-news newsreader and downloaded a load of crap but it was like greased lightning getting 230kb/s so i cant understand it. changed my network card in computer ( had to re prvision)still the same then went into a irc channel and someone suggested using a different browser (Firefox) free so great. installed and the pages fly now so i don't know if this is a internet explorer thing. if someone else could try and report in to let us know. in the irc they tried to explain packet loss and it went straight over my head but on the Dan Elwell speed test mine actually still has a 2% packet loss

whatever that means. but hey at least now i can look up packet loss on google

. i can even look at ebuyer.com now and never could on internet explorer and here i was blaming good old NTL
