I can't think of any good ones off hand - I've not used any in a while, as my connection has been fine recently.

Some info, anyway:

What do you mean by slow, by the way? Is everything slow? How slow is slow? etc.

Have you tried any speed tests?

Also, what's your location? (the NTL tech people here may find that useful)
