Hi boardsies,
NTL upgraded me to their 20mb service.
It's pretty fast and all (get at least 1.5mB/s down), but my Asus WL-500g router has no signal strength whatsoever!
I even tried with another router (same model), but still, the signal doesn't go beyond a few feet.

The only difference is that NTL gave us a new modem.
