And where they are in the UK

Spot on Mr Saffron. Where i live in the Scottish Highlands it's pretty much impossible to get pings <30ms even on fastpath on ADSL2+. This has improved on fibre as i'm getting ~20ms but i know to get significantly lower ping times i'd have to live closer to London. I've come across someone with ping times of 4ms on fibre...I suspect they live next to Telehouse in Central London LOL

I think someone on sky Llu in the Inverness / Forres area was getting lower pings. Those ISPs that use bt wholesale are generally 20cn still and pings are 50ms or higher. You can ping New York in 55ms on a good line, so it's not a good advert for bt wholesale in Scotland.

I'm North East of Scotland and on BT Infinity 2.

You should have a pretty good connection up there!

BT has Business support offices in Alness - for Business Broadband, including Infinity and also up in Thurso. So, you even speak te same dialect!

ive capped my sync speed with my zyxel modem using this line adsl configure --maxDataRate 09000 700 09700, the line errors are very low now im currently getting 41ms pings to the BBC , im in Chesterfield.

Capped Sync

Hoping it knocks interleaving off a bit.

The only time i got 14ms was when i had it first installed, the line was perfect for 12 days,then it added interleaving, to get 24ms , to say im 1200 metres from the cab and quite a bit of aluminium in there as well.

Since ive been trying the zyxel all in one , its added a lot more interleaving.

That appears to be on ADSL2+?

Not something that is supposed to be done on FTTC, and this is an FTTC thread in the Fibre forum .

no, fibre to the cabinet bt, i got 2mb on adsl2

Linky Now say sorry

North East Hampshire, near Aldershot. So pretty close to London. Infinity 2 - interleaved.

SNR is high, can't you get more speed out of it

lol, thats the idea, to get lower speed, and interleaving down. ive lowered it, i can get 16-17 down.
