Zennon Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 ADSL+2 is normally listed as up to 17ms nowadays because of offcom but in reality if you live close enough to the exchange it is up to 24mb If you get on a provider that is not over subscribed then it should be fine. I live 3 miles from my exchange and when I was on ADSL+2 I used to get 6/1 but I was happy as my pings were low and stable. TalkTalk have a LLU presence in our exchange and they over provide so I never had any jitter issue as I don't now on their fibre product abut I have spoke to people that have so it is never cut and dry with any provider.

BIG__DOG Posted September 21, 2016 Share Posted September 21, 2016 i left my 152/12 connection with virgin as they are not good for gaming by a country mile and i switched to BT for 80/20 i was quite happy to take a big drop in speeds but to be honest with you my connection now is far superior than it was with virgin and i am so glad i left. i actually get 75 - 76 down and 19 up and a ping of 7ms........ditch virgin bud and step into the light and free yourself from those shackles and chains.......Virgin throttle their network and BT do not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonicBoom Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I left 152/12 on Virgin for 28/7 on TT. Couldn't be happier with it. I couldn't play anymore on Virgin without becoming a serious danger to myself and others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
