DSL Surf

This is a bit long winded but there is a point.

I have been with my current isp for a while on the 8mb max package .

Bt have switched interleaving on the line (my line was fine and it was not requested) and my customer support have tried to get it switched off but BT say they have and its still on (can see it in my router stats).

I feel this is not going to get sorted out and the down side is my gaming pings are anything from 50ms upwards.

As i don't do a great deal of downloading i am thinking of downgrading to Nildrams DSL 2Mb Surf package.

Could anyone with this package do a ping test to www.bbc.co.uk and post the results?

Any other feedback on this package would be welcome.

Thanks in advance.
 
I'm on a 1 meg at the mo and get:

The lowest I have had a ping to bbc.co.uk on this line is 7m but it was intermitent due to a crapy aluminum line.
