Hi, NTL use invisible http proxies and once I found that the proxy I was using wasn't working. After going through things for 30 mins on the phone I finally managed to convince them that it was their proxy and not my computer. Anyway have a look at the following, it has numerous fixes for everything for NTL and BLueyonder. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robin.d.h.walker/ Especially http://homepage.ntlworld.com/robin.d.h.walker/cmtips/trancache.html Whatever you do never mention to NTL that you use Linux. I've made that mistake a few times and it causes more problems then it is worth It normally results in all problems being blamed onvLinux when it is really an issue at their end. When I was on their dial-up at Uni they changed they modems and my US Robotics 56K modem would not connect to their network. I had to pretend that I was going through the Windows control panel whilst I checked the config files in Linux. They never did fix it, so I moved to UKLinux.net.

Hi all
I have a 128k cable modem connection with ntl through a D-Link DFE-550TX ethernet card. At the moment i'm having real issues with the browsing speeds through suse 8.2.
When my daughter uses win98 on the same system she doesn't find any problems.
I've been in touch with ntl and they say the problems they faced with the viruses last month should not effect win 98, i didn't see the point in telling them about Linux as they don't acknowlege its existance.
Has anybody any ideas what is going wrong? The kernel module for the card is sundance.
yours
