I have had isdn for 1 year now from bt home highway I use a asus pci isdn card and im online mainly for gameing like quake 3 and counter strike
basically 64k connection to any isp 24/7 or a local rate isp including dedicated games isp's like jolt and barrysworld the pings suck there usally very unstable!!!
I have experianced pings from as low as 30 one minute to as high as 240 the next while playing on full servers with 15 to 20 people
i would say that the average ping over lets say
a 20 min game would be 130 on a 64k connection. So a 64k isdn connection for gamers is pointless and unstable
On the otherhand a 128k connection seems alot better for online gameing (maybe this is due to the increase in bandwith?) the pings in games are alot more stable from 30 to 130 on a full server with 20 odd people, I would say my average ping over a 20 min game was about 80.
Whats my point? isdn sucks for games and 128k connections are too expensive
I truly regret getting isdn i would of been better off on a 56k modem
My last hope anyone know of a cheap 128k isdn isp either 24/7 or offpeak and weekends service charged monthly not a 1p a min isp or Vispa!
