EDIT: Why is it your connection only drops out when your going well deep in MTT's? Never when you lose most of your stack early and where looking forward to watching some telly anyway.
I mainly play HU games online (the 10 and 20$ shootout things)...very nasty with NTL when it keeps freezing as you lose connection but can't reconnect within 30 seconds..so you're sitting out and all chips are gone.
