    ntl- 6mg

    on wireless laptop upstairs.

    what does latency mean? mine seems very high compared to everyone elses.


    Latency = more or less ping time.
    Should be not that high, depends a little on the server that you are pinging but 50 or 60 max would be good on this server.
    482 means a human mailman might be faster.

    BT 2MB. Never had problems with the service, only with billing, but that is in the past, so I am a happy customer.

    The upload speed on that is for a 2 Mbit package. Are you sure you're on 1 Mbit?

    Most people on eircom 1 Mbit get a test result of ~800 kpbs in the download test.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 246 ✭✭Garth


    I'm paying 24.99/month, which is meant to be for the 1Mb pkg
