That's a rip off I'm afraid.
Blueyonder's £25 a month and a lot faster than NTL.
For that price I get Broadband (NTL isn't BB I don't think) and Digitial with about 60 channels.

I might go with ntl, actually. They've signed a deal with Microsoft for easy Xbox Live support at just £5.00 extra per month. So for £39.99 a month, I could get 1000kbps download speed, 256kbps upload and full Xbox live support.
How do blueyonder compare?

Blueyonder as it's part owned by Microsoft.
I tried phoning them up for help on setting my Gamecube modem up, they told me they don't support Nintendo as the network is not stable, they can only help me with Xbox Live.
About 10 minutes later I realised what I was doing wrong and the modem worked fine.
Oh and one big bonus about the Cable modem they supply you with is it's got an Eternet Port on the back. Very easy to setup, at least it was with Cube. I'm yet to find out with Xbox but I'm guessing the helpline know exactly what to do if you have any problems.
I'm sure I will when I get my Box, I'm stupid when it comes to all the technical crap.

In the future I'm going to upgrade to broadband. Who's the best for Xbox live?
*falls asleep*
Yes you can. As long as you can enable Internet Connection Sharing(ICS) on the internet connection. Usually its in the properties of the connection, just enable it and then your ready to go. The cable must be a crossover cable that you use. If you have the offical link cable then this will work.
