    ** WITHOUT PREJUDICE **

    Last straw, my pathetic excuse for a DSL connection kindly provided by the clowns at netsource is getting terminated from tommorow.

    Im sick to death of pathetic excuses, total lack of any concern whasoever of what thier customers are experiencing and a constantly poor service that is unusable and unfit for purpose.

    Realistically ping times to the jolt servers and other Uk/NL gaming servers that I frequent so regulary will never get any better, I cant play with a ping bouncing from 100- 250.

    At this moment in time, Im experiencing 10-15% packet loss in game, try shooting someone with that, let alone dodging nades.

    I even got up at 4am on saturday to enjoy a game with sub 100 ping, was good until around lunchtime when the d/load monkehs started.

    What are the Options?

    I need sub 40 dos ping; this will give be a nice 70-80 ingame ping.

    D/loads more than a measily 4gb would be nice, though I have a 2mb line at work that I can easily abuse for big d/loads.

    Ideally Id like EsatBT, but they dont do Blackrock (or do they).

    Money is not an object its a business expense *cough*.

    Ideas please?

    Esat BT BB is available in Blackrock. You should give them a buzz to check if it's available in your area. In so far as pings are concerned, I think its widely accepted that eircoms pings are best/most reliable. The downside being that it's a bit dearer than Esat/IOL.

    Not true i believe, as Esat BT Business has lower and i believe just as reliable pings. (Had a problem at the start but it was explained to me why and was very quickly fixed).

    Esat BT IOL is available in Blackrock. Esat BT Business is available in Dun Laoghaire so it kinda depends where in Blackrock you live i think. (not sure if the Blackrock exchange is LLU enabled)
