RE: FN-FORUM Damn NTL - Connection Problems

date posted 19th July 2001 21:08

I have called their tech department in the past - I had a major modem
problem and they ended up giving me the 0845 number for tech support, cause
i was calling so much - I can try to dig it out if anyone needs it :)

I think its them, however, my connection is dropping well under quota, and
email, of late, has been pretty slow...

Matt,

I have had problems with my NTL dialup as well. Most of the time it's fine
and I can surf away for the quoted 2 hours before they force the line to
drop. Recently, the line has dropped well short of the two hours. This
happened lots of times when I first used NTL. I was mainly using my Mac then
and I was told to get BT to increase the gain on my line. I did and didn't
have any more trouble.
To be honest, I am not sure if it's NTL or my settings as I found I had it
set to disconnect after 2 hours, which when I turned that off seemed to fix
the problem. Although it was disconnecting if the line wasn't passing or
receiving data for about 2-3 minutes?????

Have a word with NTL. The thing about that is, is that you might have to
call the tech department which ask for a least one arm, possibly a leg as
well.

Paul.

I keep losing my connection around every 10 minutes, from around 6pm now. I
use NTL World, and just wondered, has anyone else who uses NTL experienced
problems?

If only broadband was available here....
