You have unbelievable ping times for your speeds! I wish I had them! I get 65ms to bbc and jolt and about 68 ping on CS:S Tick66 Servers!

Re: Gamer Quality Survey

haha.... i am T3 max delays being reduced from 32 to 8 will not give FEC enough time to kick in an u get loads of errors and CRCs so ur connection is even slower an u ping is higher, using an extension cable increases attenuation which will slow the connection down and cause CRCs making it intermitent, best way to go is to go wireless...
ping google.com then ping googl.co.uk?
notice .com is much higher ? its because of the distance u r from the server, a ping of 80 is a difference of 80 milli seconds thts 80/1000 of 1 second u will not notice the difference.

Re: Gamer Quality Survey

1. Yes I eventually did get through to Tier 3 and lowered the max delay.
2. Line Attenuation = 26db/7db Noise Margin 15db/14db
3. 0.9 miles
4. Im connected to the back of my phone line socket, with a long cable that reaches upstairs. A BT Engineer did this so the socket that reaches upstairs is now my main socket.
5. 12 metres.
6. Do you know your average sync speed? Cant find this information, will look it up.
7. Wired.
8. bbc.co.uk = 29ms jolt.co.uk = 30ms
9. Gorseinon SWGBY, PONTARDULAIS ROAD, GLAMORGAN SA44FF
10. Sky Broadband Package = Mid
11. Average Ping on a UK 66 Tick Server? 50ms
