I have a 120 home modem on a 10mb line. Over the last 2 weeks my connection keeps failing after about 1hr, I have to then reboot my modem to get it to work. Below are some stats on my modem. I have contacted NTL (overseas support) - they said the engineer department will contact me and arrange a visit - no one has contacted me yet! (they asked for my telelphone number, thought they would have that through my account details!)
Can anyone here help?

Re: 10 Meg Poor Connection - Where's the engineer?
I've moved this to a thread of it's own. There was no need to post in three separate threads - that will just lead to a disjointed answer to your issue.

When did support say they would an engineer would contact you. Phone faults and tell them soemone was supposed to be calling. See what they say.
Re: 10 Meg Poor Connection - Where's the engineer?
When i worked in tech support, the SLA for a callback of this kind was 48 hours (not sure if it is still the same though). how long ago did you speak to ntl?
Also there will be a contact number on your account, however some people prefer to give a mobile/ work number so tis better that they take the number than miss you when they try to call at home
