Hi all
Could I please get a few ping feedbacks on europa.owo.com? It is a server in Europe that I connect to for online gaming. I'm currently on isdn and my pings are a rather pathetic 380-480ms. I'd really like to know if this will improve with adsl. Someone has pinged it for me before and said I should get about 200ms.

Thanks!
 
I get 350-370 on that site and I'm on ISDN. No idea if ADSL would be faster Latency wise. But I know a Friend on ISDN that gets 250-280 range in the Uk I think and he Uses StormNet :)

Regards
Cerberus
 
I'm on ADSL and I get:
Minimum = 340, Maximum = 367, Average = 352
During gaming time, around 10 pm it should be a lot better though.

WOW! 92ms to the UK is pretty damn amazing, even for a leased line. Shows what's capable with that SAT-3 line if used correctly.
 
OMW...so ADSL is going to be pretty useless to me.

How do I get hold of Storm Internet? I MUST get an account there!

http://www.stormnet.co.za/ - been using them for years for international gaming, despite having ADSL. Be sure to ask that they set you up to dial into both the Cape and Jhb pops, sometimes when the one is slow, the other is super quick. Between the two, you're guaranteed of sub-300ms pings <b>anywhere</b>
 
HAHAHAHAHA ISDN kicks the hell out of ADSL in terms of latency and everything else lol

Fantasy is what people want, reality is what they need.

Well, based on sybawood's comparison, done yesterday, i feel completely vindicated in my choice of isdn. For my needs, adsl is simply not an option. If you can restrict yourself to doing your online stuff during offpeak times, isdn wins hands down in my opinion. We must be the only country in the world that still has a roaring isdn trade. What a joke. Not!
Still waiting for that technician though...tap.. tap...tap....

Last few nights looking good on ADSL- problem, tho is consistency. Can be excellent for a night or two, or an hour or two, then ka-boom :(

With UOtrace I get a consistent 330 - 350 ping to europa and a decent 250 - 280 to atlantic. These are the results over a period of 5+ days taken throughout the day, both during week and weekends.
