Does anybody know why this is happening?
I have ntl bb (1mg) and the d/s light has stopped flashing - sync and rdy are constantly on. Slow connection exists to sites.
Any help/ideas will be helpful!
By the way, i live in the WS14 area.

Re: Does anybody know why this is happening?
Thanks for the reply.
Modem is ntl:home 200
No, only problem is websites - e-mail's working fine.
Phoned up ntl bb technical support. Went through trouble shoot, said it was the PC that was causing the prob - dont believe this though!
How do u change the proxy?
Many thanks.

Follow the 2nd link I gave in my initial post, the details of how to do it are there.
[Edit]-And here's a list of proxies to choose from: http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robin.d...cache.html#ntl

Changed proxy - still doing the same thing. D/S light not flashing etc!
Any other ideas would be grateful.
Browsing still slow!

Have you tried a complete reboot? (modem and PC)

Re: Does anybody know why this is happening?
Actually now running over 1000kb
Speed is now fine.
Does it matter that this D/S light is not working?
Will it affect my service in any way?

Re: Does anybody know why this is happening?
Not sure, if the service itself is fine then I wouldn't worry about it too much.....
Maybe.....
