20-30 ping shouldn’t impact your gamingI'm a new customer on Cityfibre, 900mbit package. My service activated yesterday and I do not have IPv6!
Moreover, I am getting routed via Edinburgh - which makes my ping average around 20-30 in gaming... Lovely...
Will most likely cancel the contract again
Why did most of my racing games show me low latency warnings during tests today then? 20 pings when I run speedtests... they might be higher if I connect to game servers in Europe if my connection first goes in the wrong direction (towards Scotland)20-30 ping shouldn’t impact your gaming![]()
So how does it impact your gaming?Why did most of my racing games show me low latency warnings during tests today then? 20 pings when I run speedtests... they might be higher if I connect to game servers in Europe if my connection first goes in the wrong direction (towards Scotland)
If you look online, there are a couple of people who also suffer jitter and packet loss because of these routing issues... And in competitive gaming every ms counts... Will test the gaming performance more thoroughly over the weekend... The price is sadly very good and I don't want to have an ugly CF box on my wall for no reasonSo how does it impact your gaming?
It technically shouldn’t, unless you missed a 0 off both those numbers.
Not a VF customer but that's good. I regularly cope with the pings from mobile data online and I don't notice a major issue, granted that I'm not competitive or anything.Why did most of my racing games show me low latency warnings during tests today then? 20 pings when I run speedtests... they might be higher if I connect to game servers in Europe if my connection first goes in the wrong direction (towards Scotland)

You’ve still not answered my question on your experience not other people’s.If you look online, there are a couple of people who also suffer jitter and packet loss because of these routing issues...

I can definitely tell that pings are around 10ms higher on Vodafone/CF FTTP (16-23ms to a server in my hometown) vs. my old BT/OR FTTP (7-11ms to a server in my hometown) connection... That's clearly because they are routing me via a Scottish Gateway... Power cycling didn't help here...You’ve still not answered my question on your experience not other people’s.
O2 mobile is great for me, most people I know say it’s very poor… I’m not ending my contract cuz those people said it’s poor.
