Thats better.

Was just downloading and didn't stop the download when I ran the test again to the London server.

Connection is 750/256

I can't fault that at all.

Just to be certain....

Image

Then final test to Barcelona.

I've been doing a bit of testing and here's the results. All tests were done within 10 mins and on the same line with the i-choice platform. All are 1024/128 services.

As you can see, my speed is way down from the 1024 I should be seeing, but this must be due to the line as all are down. To my surprise, netway is performing particularly poorly. Wavespeed is by far the best.

I have played around 1hr of Battlefield 2 on a uk server on all these connections. All of them are crap and unplayable, but Wavespeed managed to stay connected without getting autobooted for a bad ping.

I would try OTEnet as well, but after over 48hrs they have not yet replied to my email and I find that totally unacceptable for an ISP company.

seems to me Wavespeed wins again... probably a best set for online gaming so far... Cyta used to be ok with pings 5 years ago :D :D used to be...

I used to play Battlefield on Wavespeed for more than a year... most of UK servers are in 150-190ms range.
But please stop promoting them as the more ppl will get on it, the worse is gonna get (tshhhhh) :D :D :D

Or the more business they get, the more they will reinvest to improve their service. ;)

It's still shite for gaming though, pings <50mS are required if you play an fps at any sort of decent level, which is just not possible from here to UK.

murf62, just like Cytanet did :D :D :D

my lowest pings were at 110-120ms in the beginning and i used to get pretty good scores... it could be harder to snipe a moving target but most of action such as head on assaults are perfect.... + ingame VOIP works fine aswell.

Dont forget to switch off your dreambox and porn downloads while you are playing :D :D :D
