I have not been able to play online in three months due to large pings since eircons upgrade. If you can choose another ISP other than eircon go with Smart or UPC. It will save you alot of hassle. I am not giving eircon another cent. **** EIRCOM

Your ping is way too high. Contact them and try to get them to sort it out.

Lads if you want speed test results then look at the speed test thread, as for eircom and pings its a well documented issue since the last upgrades, just use the search function and you'll see
