Re: virgin with old ntl cable? little worried
Damaged coax would render your services liable to all sorts of disruption, but unlike with ADSL if it's resulting in you getting half the advertised speed, they will change the cable to get your speed up to what you're paying for.
A properly functioning cable internet service should operate at, or close to, the advertised speed, unlike ADSL where the advertised speed is merely the maximum the technology is capable of, and not in any way related to what the line into your house will support.
If they need to change the cable they will look to lay it around any obstacles rather than digging up your drive. I wouldn't assume that they are going to need to change it though.
