well all i just upgraded from the shoddy entanet 8mb to the vispa 8mb business or adsl max premium package with the extra upload of 884k v the normal 448k and apparantly the max gets priority on the bt network so one would expect better pings?
wrong! well kind of
all was well when i first fired it up and rebooted my router.at 7am it was bliss i had the full 7.1mb speed and 0.68mb upload and 25 ping to www.vispa.com 32ms to jolt.co.uk in london from a rural town in west of ireland.
after 10am things got nasty though gaming was unbareable with 200ms pings, iplayer hd said i had not enough bandwidth when its own speedtest said i had 6999kbps but a streaming rate of only 1688kbps? any chance vispa cap iplayer? thier website states clearly no traffic shaping.
how is this possible i thought by paying almost £35pm for a so called premium package i would get 7mb 24/7 and low pings?
all in all a bad day im just waiting to see how my second day goes and how vispa repsond to my mails.
