League of legends, world of warcraft, FPS games etc.

What is the latency, packetloss and stuff like?. Really need to know to make a decision!
 
What line are ypu getting and why Neotel ?

Anything from 4-10 megs. Im considering moving to them, not many wireless options. Adsl problems have just been annoying. Just looking for something fast to game on.
 
Rule of thumb, Generally any sort of wireless isn't recommended for gaming, Whether it's how your computer connects to the router or how you receive your internet connection. It's just unstable etc. Unless you are getting a microwave link.. but that is $$$$
 
Yes as long as you are using their LTE and have RSSI/RSRP of -70/-94 dBmA or better. Get the techs to do a line of sight test

Nope. Maybe old school wimax and EVDO, but not LTE. LTE has unexpected packet round-trip of 13ms as well as in-line error correction. It works fine for gaming. I use it, have packetloss of 0.004% and ping of 14ms to local BF4 servers, 9/10 times the lowest ping on the server.

See here for explanation of how LTE works and real world test results:
