Well, darkangel confirmed what I guessed might be the case. The DNS server gets you where you want to go, but to get a nice, broad, continuing stream relies on some other part of the internet jigsaw. In this case, possibly NTL's capacity in your local area, although network congestion can occur anywhere on the internet between you and the XBL server.
