NTL 64K cable modem ?
Ronnie Gibson
that NTL are offering now?
I'm interested to know how it compares to a standard dial up modem
and whether people think it is worth the extra £5 over free modem
access.
Cheers
Ronnie

Others will have to let you know about the speed bit (I'm on the 512K
service), but without *any* hesitation *at all* I'd say it would
definitely be worth £5 a month just for the always-on aspect. It's
brilliant, that.

Access speed it comparable to a 56k modem, but the fact that it is
'always on' makes a huge difference. Also, it's superb for online games
- just had a weekend playing 'Tribes 2' with pings of 20-40ms to
Barrysworld servers :-)

a FAQ but can anyone give me a start on where to look for useful info? I'm
looking for helpful stuff like best way to deal with NTL tech if if it don't
work, where to get Linux drivers, etc.
Salesman said I'd be getting an Ethernet-interface 3Com cable modem but
bloke across the road from me says he already received his and it's actually
made by Motorola - this worries me because the Moto entry-level device has a
USB interface or at least it appeared to when I looked at

The 'standard' NTL cable modem is the Motorola SB4100, this has both a
USB & a Ethernet port so you should have no worries about using it via
ethernet. The 3Com modems haven't been available for a time now
(there was apparently a incompatibility problem).
Hope this puts your mind at rest..
