Cable modem here too (600Kbps).  That said, recently, the performance has
sometimes been no better than dial-up.  Apparently, my provider has had
problems with its proxy servers.  I reboot my router (DLINK) and cable modem
(Motorola Surfboard) occasionally, and this can improve performance.  This
is a standard 'fix everything' from the support guys.  Usually they are
quite good.  They are always helpful (when you can get through), but they
don't always know their ARP from their elbow.  On of their senior tech did
give me the URL of a site that can help troubleshoot problems on the Net.

Overall, I'm pretty happy with the service from NTLWorld.

Just out of interest, what sort of router are you using Sam?
