Hi m8..it could be someone is now using the same mac as you,which would explain the all of a sudden slow speed.as for auto settings program,it depends on what modem you have.

I have the same modem m8,its the little blue ntl ambit 250 modem and supposed to be one of the best ones.if you change the mac address and cant connect to the net,all this means is that you have not got a live mac address.just type another into the ambit program and write it to the modem and try again,and so on and so on until you get a working mac.UNFORTUNATELY...when you do get one that works you wont be able to use it as it will be in the same area as you and the same ubr sector.BUT...you can trade this working mac with someone else and get one that will work on your modem.Do some more reading and you will get there in the end.....GOOD LUCK.
