Extremely High Ping and Latency [not resolved]

Well, last 2 weeks have been the pits, 8ta and me K4605, had a heavy fall out, bought me Huawei B683 router, which help somewhat, when it got a connection it held onto it. But was getting great connects, with my K4605, and could go no where, nothing loaded. Like I said, the pits.

To-night, bought, a new 2+1 bundle, put SIM in my K4605, and seconds later, I was connected, and cruising :D

Am holding thumbs, that this "bad patch" is over. Maybe the techie, who contacted me due to my complaint fixed it. Will give it a few days, and see how things pan out.

Really hoping it lasts.
 
The latency on 8ta is just getting ridiculous now. I'm effing sick of it. I want to play COD without having to pay R1k for ADSL, but paying R140p/m is just as a waste of money if I don't get what I want.
 
Meh so after reporting the fault to 8ta i ask a friend to run a ping test .... he only browses so he doesnt worry but look at this http://www.pingtest.net/result/62187559.png


then i plugged in my VODAMAN
and booom
