He then told me that tech support would contact me within the next 48 hours. ! week later and still no reply. i got my modem and soldering iron out and fixed it myself from which now is working ok but still has the disconecting problem. I never had this before they upgraded the speed. Everyday i have to reset the modem at least twice to get it to work for a while. Thats the reason i am going to get a new modem.
Perhaps it would be a good idea if you knew what you were talking about before you tar all the NTL tech staff with the same brush !!! NTL cable modems dont have an optical connection !

As for re-soldering what I am asuming is the rj-45 connector, Its users like you that squirt noise into the cable network and upset other peoples connections. The NTL modem does not belong to you and you have no right to tamper with it or take it apart.

Not all technical support staff are "stupid" perhaps you should try working in the technical support business yourself for a while to see how easy it is

May I sugest that if you want any help you try being polite to people - You may find it more productive !
