I myself have noticed some weird things that "could" be shaping the most noticeable been is the sudden speed jumps and drops that occur at certain times of the day, they are not really noticeable on the bottom 2 tiers.

Too be honest i have no concrete evidence. But i cannot see what else could be so time based. I tried everything possable to get full 10 meg, Sadly i gave up and went to 2 meg. My 2 meg is rock solid any time of the day or night. I have 2 other friends who have dumped 10 meg and returned to 2 meg, both for the same reasons as me.
Problem is how many ISP's would have the nerve to admit they were shaping traffic. IF and its a big IF NTL are shaping then i do think they should admit to it. They would get more respect from me for admitting it than if they are hiding it.
Again i have no real evidence just a feeling that could be wrong.
