big difference

My 16Mb Sky connection the spikes are the usual Anytime+ downloads and general browsing speedtest etc. It is turning out to be the most stable internet connection I have ever had. Once Sky launch the rumoured low ping gaming trials later in the summer my minimum latency should drop. But as it is its fantastic for gaming.

Indeed, as long as its stable and your avg hugs it tighter than a baby's nappy, then 28ms baseline is nothing to be quibbed at

Yup and ping bbc.co.uk gives a lower ping then that monitor,

Even better then :) Must just be routing thats giving you the higher min.

I so want an ADSL line for gaming, i can get a BT line put in for free saving me £130 quid, but i just cant justify the extra £20 a month ontop of my virgin connection.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

I have noticed a MASSIVE improvement on xboxlive since moving to Sky but unfortunately right now they insist on having interleaved on. This increase's ping quite abit.

Apparently fast-path gaming lines could be trialed later this summer which could potentially cut my baseline/minimum ping in half maybe even more than half.I remember the old UKonline ADSL fastpath lines having crazy low pings.

My Ambit router stopped working last week and it was replaced with a superhub (VMDG480) but I cannot get the Think Broadband monitor to work - is there something I'm overlooking?

I've seen posts that say you need a separate router, not doing that just for the monitor as wireless is currently better that with the Linksys router we were using. Another post said to disable UPnP but that didn't work and a post on Virgin's Community forums said to uncheck respond to ping request (I thought it should be checked).

Have also set up a new monitor for change of IP address.

Any suggestions appreciated.

if your SH is in combo mode router and modem functioning then log in to your SH

192.168.100.1

advanced settings

DMZ

tick the respond to ping box

apply

-----------------

note: if you switch to modem mode and link your own router your IP will change. you'll have to update that on your thinkbroadband ping monitors settings

if your using your own router double check ping response if enabled on it.

Took TalkTalk up on the offer on free instal + 12months half price. Can just cancel within 10days. They turn interleaving off also and allow you to have 6db.
Now you said Sky allow Fasthpath in the summer kinda gutted. Can get a good deal with them in tv ^ :D

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

Thank thenry,

Confirm SH is in combo mode and settings in DMZ are already as you state. Have tried rebooting SH but still the same.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

double check the IP addy. untick the boxes within services or modem mode the thing and link your own router then set up a new monitor, delete your older ones. you said you have a Linksys?
