My modem speeds have been updated, so it must just be pretty busy in my area...I hope.

This from another thread from someone in Manchester:

I complained via their feedback service:

I have looked into your situation in more depth and I can see that there are some network issues in your area. These would cause the problems that you have been facing, (dropped connections, slow browsing and downloads). At the moment there is work scheduled to take place on 06/07/2006 to resolve this issue.

ntl is committed to provide all it's customers with the highest quality service possible. I am sorry that you have not received the service you have been expecting of late. Once the work has been completed, you should no longer experience the degraded service.

I hope this answers your questions.

Thank you for contacting ntl

So hopefully in the next couple of weeks, things should improve.
