    Is it worth buying a "Hi Speed" 24MBDown/3MBUp ADSL Modem?

    I have just installed (well tomorrow to be honest) a 4MB Telkom line for 100% dedicated online FPS gaming (no phone, plug into PS3 and nothing else needed or wanted!). I do not want to compromise with anything when it comes to speeds or ping/latency, so my next search was for the "current best"...

    ISPS - Happy to advertised unshaped, but what about their throttling policy? Warning!

    Yeah, exactly what the topic says. So everyones advertising unshaped and/or uncapped accounts, but what are your ISP's throttling policies? For those that don't understand why this is significant, it's because, in effect this will CAP you and cause you to get underperformance on your...

    Lowest Latency ISP for Gaming?

    I game on European servers (Aion) and have been experimenting with various ISPs - Afrihost isn't great sitting at 300-600ms ping on average and peaks at around 1200ms, and Screamer is just the most awfully slow connection ever averaging at 600-1200ms with peaks at 3400ms. Anyone else getting...
