So about a week and a half ago we had a big wind storm with 110km/h winds and it damaged something somewhere and apparently my ISP has approximately zero redundancy. This was the result for at least 7 days. I did the math and taking into account my packet loss I was actually slower than a 56k dialup modem. It was so bad I couldn't actually completely finish a test and I had to take a screenshot.  I did however manage to complete a pingtest though. quote:Hi Brandon; After bothering customer support long enough they gave me this wonderful response. Apparently, instead of having redundancy of any sort whatsoever, what they did was instead load up ~500 people to a single 20mbps gateway and expected everything to go just fine. http://mcsnet.ca/repairs.php What a joke.

I'm pretty sure DSL stands for Dick Sucking Lips.

revmoo posted:Getting my DSL installed currently, are there any things I can do to optimize for ping? I don't care how much throughput I have to trade. My LAN is gigabit with a iptables router and I'm getting service run to the pole and a brand new line run from the pole to my house. Anything else I can do to minimize latency? http://www.leatrix.com/leatrix-latency-fix What about this: Leatrix Latency Fix will reduce your online gaming latency significantly by increasing the frequency of TCP acknowledgements sent to the game server. For the technically minded, this is a program which will modify TCPAckFrequency.

I thought all of Scandinavia had insanely cheap internet, or is that just sweden. 500 NOK is $87 Canadian

Agreed posted:That seems reasonable for a fast connection? Then again I can't consistently test higher than 900KB/s download and about 75KB/s upload, and during high usage times the download dips under 500KB/s. Convert to megabits and yeah I have shiternet obviously, but is that considered a high price for what looks to me like very fast internet speeds? I'm lucky to get 400 KB/s during the lowest usage hours. <100KB/s and 20% packet loss is normal for me during like 5pm-1am, with a 60gb/month total-shut-off-if-you-exceed cap for $60/month I might not be the best judge of what something is worth.
