Hi guys, i recently changed my ISP to tiscali "MAX" which is up to 8mb connection depending on where you live etc,

I recieve around 2500-3000download and 250-350upload

But when i play games such as counter strike i suffer from eratic ping behaviour it averages around 120 and can drop to around 75 (Best i get) and rise to 300, Its made playing online games impossible.

Also It seemed to worsen after i had a Sky (Television company) technician round to connect the skybox to the phone line, could he have made the line dodgy?

I use to get around 30 (at best) ping on my old ISP and before the technician came



anyhelp is appreciated

Most ISP's have very busy DNS's which cause slow times when loading pages with domain names. However as this is a direct ping to an IP address you should be looking at calling your ISP.

In the mean time - try setting your DNS's to my server which is barely being used;

82.138.240.15 (Primary)
82.138.240.9 (Secondary)

After changing my DNS to these I have noticed massive changes in my speeds of resolving domain names.

After some time the ping speeds on a router become "INTERLEAVED", if you ring your ISP and tell them that your ping speeds are becoming interleaved they can possibly flush the line and correct these problems for you.
