horrendous for gaming, very very poor quality of service.

The line literally disconnects every 1/2 hour and it Doesnt sync again for 1 hour, when it works download speeds are slighty over 50KB/s and pings on CSS for example are 100MS and above for UK servers.

Irish Servers are great though i must admit, get pings of less than 15ms and around 1.5MB/s download off HEANET
