hi all,

i dont know if any1 touched this before but do u guys think that we will see latency improvement with the new dsl connections?

i currently have ogero 512 package, playin black ops, my ping ranges between 150ms - 200ms...playable...but of course anything below 100ms is awesome...however lately, i am havin difficulty playin as the ping gets really unstable...sometimes just goes up to over a sec before coming back to normal. i have tried everything to resolve this (changed modem, changed lines, changed filters..no luck)...really ruins your gaming experience...so do u guys think this will be improved?

thanks
The backbone is being converted to fiber, it should bring latency improvements.
how long is this going to take? we need to have lower pings soon.

Are you sure ? we need confirmation
hussam wroteFuSe, 10GBits/second isn't much to be honest at Mbits/second. Users will eat it quickly if you give them unlimited. No constrains => people can download 24/7 => networks get congested again.
hmm I see, thanks for the reply hussam, and yeah can we confirm the latency improvement?
http://imewecable.com/ says we'll be connected directly to Europe so my guess would be we'll get a much more stable connection to European game servers which should give better latency that the 700 to 2000ms we now get from satellite connections.
does anyone know where can i find a cheap and good ADSL modem for Ogero ? (other than the 86,000 L.L modem provided by Ogero)

i was pinging bbc.co.uk at exactly 99ms min and 105ms max

this was ever since they first started IMEWE a month or 2 back now (

and now these days its back to the old 145ms

so whatever they are doing its not working/ didn't work, and made things go back to the way it was.

can you confirm your source ?
What's the best DSL modem I can buy that works with Ogero?
My thomson sucks, I'm thinking to get the modem and the router separately.
Quick question. I have a 512kbps internet. Will it automatically update to the new 4Mbps package come October or will I have to ask my provider for that package?

That's what nobody knows... i have a 512kbps package too, and i want the 1mbps 4gb quota....
Will everyone be upgraded to the 1mbps and then whomever wants to upgrade will do so upon request ? or will the 128 and 256 automatically go the 1mbps , and the 512 to 2mbps etc ... ?
all packages <= 1 mbps will become the lowest package automatically, once you want more, you should contact your ISP.
amkahal wroteall packages <= 1 mbps will become the lowest package automatically, once you want more, you should contact your ISP.
Is that reliable information ? Are you absolutely sure or are you just logically assuming ?
The logic says that they should upgrade your speed automatically while keeping or reducing its cost because they are forcing you to change.
What's the quota for 3mbs?
I hope they will not f*ck up adsl again this time with ridiculous limits, deja they didn't upgrade as promised to 21mbs (France is now at 100mbs)
@Chup: I am not assuming, that is what i read.
what I still find surprising is that no one has showed any unlimited plans, I'd prefer having a 2mbps unlimited connection rather than a 8 mbps limited connection.

They will probably come in time, first the ISP's need to buy as many E1's and get them into operation as they can. They can only do that starting next month when the prices drop over 80% over what they are now. After that, they can determine how much excess capacity they have and then determine if they can offer unlimited/quota free plans.
