Remember the discussion you had with Igni? Well you're doing the same.

thats what I said lol

oddly, my old graph, using another IP address has started monitoring someones connection

You seemed to take umbridge when Igni posted a graph of a VM connection that wasn't his IP addy and saying you thought it was illegal.

You are doing the same. You are pinging an IP addy you don't own

I fail to see the difference. (BTW it is not illegal!).

Not exactly remote, the southside of Glasgow near Rutherglen.

I had BE Unlimited on fastpath before switching to VM. It's a great service, but the only problem was a noisy line that BT would do nothing about. Caused packet loss

Pity

Not that remote then :D, nice graph either way.

on a separate note

I can remember a good while back getting my backside handed to me on cod4 by somebody with a gamertag looking suspiciously like yours :p:

Clearly it was just your BB making all the difference ;)
:D

Doubt it was me, I suck online at COD lol. Although my younger brother sometimes plays on my GT when he stays at mine.

that graph craig posted was my old one and was just over £20 month.

Who was it with?

I assume also that you were lucky enough to live very close to your local exchange to get a low ping like that

I'd kill to get a service like that tbh


Mine
I just wish I could get a VM service without these annoying spike periods

sync speed doesnt affect ping that much, it was a long line that was unstable on most isp's.

The isp was ukonline and 2 things where important to that graph.

1 - they utilised SRA (seamless rate adaption) technology which means if a noise burst or something occurs that would normally either cause the line to drop or get packetloss then SRA silently in the background with no downtime adapts the sync speed. It can go up as well as down. Ukonline is the only isp in the UK to ever supply this, at least confirmed.
2 - it was on the easynet network which is probably the best quality network in the UK in terms of capacity vs subscriber numbers. Its the same network that sky use for skybb who are able to supply true unlimited with no FUP, shaping etc. In addition easynet have excellent peering links worldwide, they have various POP's around the world.

Sadly ukonline got closed down by sky in jan 2011, the same can be got from easynet connect but is at a mere £200 connection fee £50 a month (used to be £100 month).

The line in question synced on average between 5.4mbit and 7.2mbit. (got nowhere near 7mbit the last 6 months as line had serious degradation, even SRA was struggling to keep stable).

Be perfect for gaming though

I don't download much, I'm more interested in low ping stability
