[Sderby] Cable broadband

[Kevin Noon]

NTL note s the MAC addresses of your NIC (or so they tell me) this is
only refreshed daily. Therefore it is difficult to chop and change the
PC connected to the modem. I have had limited success with Linux and NTL
but it is necessary to reboot the modem each time you change the PC that
is connected to the PC.

It might be NTL's registration servers are messed up (again)

see http://www.ntl-isp.ntl.com/lookup/default.asp

for details. It is up down like a yoyo.

Have fun
