    typically 50-70ms for me so passable but sometimes it can be unusable for gaming like when "de-prioritised" or contention get too bad

    It is inconsistent for gaming. I typically get between 20-30ms in a speed test. However for some reason gaming between about 7 and 10 PM is like a lottery and does nothing for your nerves- despite pings not too bad.
    I moved to Eir mobile broadband , similar pings but much more consistent and less total crashes if any. i would see if you can use your phone as a hotspot perhaps ?
