On the up side A big Thumbs up to NTL for getting a Techie out today and for getting network out to the local box and sorting it.  |
Heh totally unnecessary from your point of view. The only thing this would have done is introduce noise onto network from the unterminated coax that was in the back of your modem to be honest.
If the coax is in firmly that's all they need to know really.
