Broadband Question

Hi guys, fantastic site here ! thanks for all the info

Im currently on orange and looking to migrate, got the migration code on its way in a few days.

I live in doncaster, Basicaly im after a net that is stable and realy good pings as i do a lot of gaming, download speeds with orange are great but the stability of the line is terrible pings shoot up after 5 ish when peak hours are involved.

Anyone got any reccomendations ? i been looking at ZEN

Also i rang BE but its not available in my area :(

Cheers, lee
 
BE has some of the best unbundled (LLU) coverage in the country so I am guessing that if you can't get them then you probably can't get most of the other unbundled alternatives either (TalkTalk not withstanding, although I don't know how well their supposedly gamer-friendly PRO package actually performs).

Anyway, seeing as you're probably limited to BT's network and low latency is likely to be important for gaming then I'd suggest you start by looking at Zen, IDNet, Fast.co.uk and ICUK . Eclipse Internet and PlusNet often offer some flexible and cheaper usage allowances too but they may not be ideal for the latency demands of a gamer; that is of course somewhat variable.
