Pass me the popcorn someone.
Not surprised you've low jitter Chris, after your history with VM they probably gave you your own node
Saying that I did have very low jitter myself at one point, I was on an upstream with only 13 other modems. Sometimes thanks to geography and other reasons people can be sharing bandwidth with very few other people as you evidently are.
It's to be enjoyed, as I noted on my first post it's pretty rare on VM due both to their subscribing guidelines and the nature of the technology.

FTTN, not C, in the case of VM though this is another thread in itself.
The ASA and Ofcom allow them to call it fibre optic which is the main thing, as it makes the UK's broadband situation seem better than it is. This may change in the future as genuine fibre optic services become more commonplace. A cable operator in the USA for example claimed their service was fibre optic and were told to stop advertising as such after Verizon, who run the fibre to the home FiOS service, complained.
