The engineer that replaced my Terayon told me that they were no longer compatible with the changes NTL had made to the network: something to do with an increase in power levels.

As to the main issue of the thread, I'm still experiencing random connection drops even with my new NTL250. My connection is substantially better than with the Terayon, which couldn't stay connected for more than a few seconds, but the random drops make online gaming almost impossible. In general use I get my full 2Mb speed so I don't see it as a problem with my modem or PC but just the general instability in NTL's network that others are seeing.
