Hello All,
I've been reading through this thread with interest. I started getting connection issues with NTL about 3 weeks ago like a lot of you. I play FarCry online and also CoD. I've got a trace route to the server I play on here:-
Tracing route to 80.68.46.150 over a maximum of 30 hops

12 11 ms 13 ms 12 ms 80.68.46.150
Trace complete.
Can anyone see an obvious answer within this trace route as to the cause of my problems or is just saturation of the network as previously stated in this thread. NTL technical support are useless, I've been on the phone to India for about 4 hours in total trying to resolve this issue, they also managed to upgrade me to 10mb
I got a new modem out of them though but that didn't help. I'm connected directly to the modem from my PC. When I test my speed on NTL's speed test page it varies wildly
Thanks in advance for any help
Kind Regards
John
