Hi all

So they busy putting in fibre into my complex, and wondering from the guys who have moved from DSL to fibre seen any latency improvements?

Just trying to see if it is worth the move in terms of gaming.

I read some people have had only slight improvement but better stability. Is this true for the people who made the move?

Ok? I still don't understand why you think Sinbad's test is fake.

Who is your Fibre Provider? Are you using a Tunnel for IPv6?

Not fake
In fact, not as good as it usually is. That 3ms is out of character.

If you go look in the crystal Web adsl thread you'll see a traceroute I posted to London
