i often get pings below 100 in most of my games of halo. i think cable has lower pings than adsl but i dont know why. maybe its because the network is newer and better since it uses coax instead of copper which adsl uses. im guessing also that the contention is way better than adsl. some people even say that the contention is 1:1 on cable but i dont know this for sure. Im on telewest and their service is the best with no contention whatsoever.
