Anyone from the UK trying to play UT or Q3 via their Demon account?? 

I have given up...I have no idea what these jokers are up to and for
£12 per month they bloody ought to sort it out. I have a USR 56K and
connect at 45,300 on ave. However this isn't a constant - Line
degradation kicks in almost immediately.

I originally thought it was my phone line, so the other day I got BT
round..."no problems" they said - BT speak for f**k off - So I
installed Wireplay to try it's direct connect in case as I had
suspected it wasn't my phone line. Well low and behold connect at
44,000 on the nose - consistant too and it's playable. Bit of a high
ping 200-ish. I need to mess with the configs to smooth that.

So anyone experiencing the same sort of problems with Demon?

Just a rant nothing else :)
