I was with Demon since '94 and left them last year when service degraded to the point where I was seeing >50 ADSL resynch's per hour.
Whilst trying to resolve the connectivity issues, I experienced all the problems as stated above and received nothing of worth from Demons "helpdesk" for three months. After which, I cancelled my contract and switched to another ISP.
After the switch, with the same equipment on the same phone line, I have a 3x faster service and no disconnects.
I suggest that anyone considering Demon as an ISP first do a search for Demon Internet Review and read the plethora of complaints that are currently associated with this (now) dire company.
