would you pay more for ADSL with a lower contention?
 
Hi there, im just wondering if someone offered 1mb dsl on a 15-1 contention how much would you be willing to pay?

does £35 sound to expensive?

(this is more a poll to gamers so please leave in this forum thx)

15:1 contention for £35.00 :eek: Thats too cheap......

The best priced 20:1 1mb I can find is about £60.00 a month !

I wouldn't pay any more for less contention, at least not yet as I've never noticed any lack of bandwidth on 50:1

Doesn't affect me here, I play all sorts of games online and never notice ping spikes or poor latency, that could be down to ADSL only just being rolled out in my area though, if a problem ever develops noticably I'll consider changing.
