I have @home (dutch provider) for some time now and we had complaints for like 6 months in a row, keep disconnecting etc. but atleast the ping always was decent, (on most dutch providers), but lately me and some dutchies have found out that the ping is getting worse and worse, its a frigging 100 now! jesus christ, im used to 40, maybe its not alot for u guys but i doubt it will get less, im afraid it will be even more, im not sure whats wrong, but of all you dutchies plz gemme some feedback if u guys are having the same problems...
the last few weeks I'm having a ping of around 90 most of the times.....instead of 50 and whats even worse is that I'm getting 20-50 % packet loss as well
dunno if its my provider or that its Amsterdam, but they should fix it and quick
I have cable from the smallest internet provider in dutchiland .o/
It actually only provides internet for our tiny little city (just a bit more than 13.000 ppl or summit, dunno don't care tbh) and it gives me about 60 ping these days..used to be 30 or less x_X
80 kb/s download..and 14 kb/s upload :< i can live with it tho
I say we blame gameservers.net for the ping-probs.
Move to Japan. You can get 22mbps adsl. Uses the same backbone as the uk does, just they have decided to get their asses in gear and spend money on upgrading the exchanges.
In the meantime, we are only *just* getting 1 and 2mb in the UK, GG BT...
