I am sure because I touched NOTHING on machines or browsers. That does not leave much in the way of equipment, but STILL I get the same abuse expected from idiots here. You're perchance ??

you changed the LAN card... forgive me but did you you use the force or some other magic to do that.

Abuse???

I have told you TWICE that I changed NOTHING on either PC to get speedtest.net reporting correctly and that it was something else I changed here. Now were you born stupid, or did you have to study. You are proving my point, that it would be a waste of my time volunteering what I changed, because some know-all anorak would rubbish what I said. Did't take long for you to claim the post did it? Now why not take another guess what was changed here.

Going around playing games and calling others idiots is s sure fire way to get another suspension, so perhaps walk away from this game.

you said that you changed your lan card and recently some work was done to improve your VDSL line, you claim this together has made your connection so good that is now only take 1ms for data to get to a from your connection in Suffolk somewhere (guessing)

Now I know for sure that neither of my iMac's, Macbook, laptops or PC connected on a very good VDSL line and closer to most main ISP's servers and gateways in London are getting 1ms response times to servers that are very close to myself,

I must point out that I have a BQM hosted in maidenhead and that ping me at 9ms, I ping the BBC and Google at 9ms also...

The fact is that a ping from your computer to your NGA and back will probably be longer than 1ms so through a whole web of networks to Xilo and all the way back is going to impossible, and probably unknown for DSL lines...

Also as I mentioned before, I have had this issue myself on a older laptop on a relatives Sky ADSL connection at 2.5km line length and over wireless... now considering the baseline ping on this line was around 21ms due to interleaving and a pinging the router from this laptop fluctuated between 3 and 9ms I don't think speedtest.net was reading correctly...

I can't say I tried TBB at the time but sure if one thinks its a super connection then others "could" too.

Now calling me stupid is uncalled for and some may refer that back to you but that WON'T be me, the case is you have no idea who I am, or what I do and have done!

However I have worked along side some of the big communications providers and even been offered jobs by them too, I've fixed issues they could not, I do believe I have more experience in this area than you and if you think I'm being big headed by saying this, I don't care!

I have found your opinion's or insults too be very inaccurate, biased "maybe a little" and most of all ignorant & hypocritical... & "sometimes" amusing

I'm not going to fire any insults at you regarding this matter as it is childish and only ends up with me being unable to help those in need, I have however made the appropriate staff aware of these posts and I'm sure they will handle this accordingly..

POST WRITTEN BEFORE MR SAFFRON RESPONSE!

Please yourself, But I am not going to be called stupid and have every word I post rubbished. Had a bellyful of your know all anoraks rubbishing Pulse8 this last week. They have called them liars, accused them of not really reselling TTB, not being affiliated to this or that and far more expensive than your beloved Plusnet on a market 1 exchange. You have seen it and ignored it. You may wish to sit back and accept such bull and be called a liar, but I don't. It's just a pity your response is so one sided in telling me to walk away. Why do you rarely have a pop at those spouting rubbish and stirring things up. If you wish to go into childish little tin Hitler mode and ban me again for defending myself, feel free.

I don't care if you have worked alongside Jesus Christ Almighty and dare say I am more qualified than you as a technician, but that is beside the point.
What I said, was that the newer machine with a gigabit network card was reporting a lower ping than the older machine with a slower card on speedtest.net. Anoraks here rubbished everything I posted and blamed my browsers, faulty speedtest.net and all-sorts. I understand ping, the fact that 7 is about the lowest possible and the speed of light for that matter. I was posting the symptoms I had here in hope of an intelligent response instead of the usual abuse and total bull. Obviously that was too much to hope for. I say again, it was NOTHING to do with a network card and that I have changed something else that has made a great difference to my latency and pings. Have a Google and find the components that make up a Broadband setup within the home - Discard the PCs and have a wild guess.

So you have now decided that the ping reported by speedtest.net was incorrect?

Before you said it was due to your line being improved by Openreach thanks to your beloved Pulse8...

If we "anoraks" rubbished anything you said then we must have had good reason to do so,

your comments regarding Pulse8 not reselling TTB is incorrect, it was said that Pulse8 doesn't just sell TTB and also sells BT WBC as it can provide to those who don't have TTB LLU enabled exchanges... it was also said that possibly a line could be provisioned via BT WBC in the case that TTB LLU didn't have the required bandwidth or allocation available for another connection.

You also forget that the reasons TTB and BT WBC conversation started was because you posted inaccurate information saying that a BT issue was causing TTB to be down, you later corrected this but now your bringing it up again ???

Unless your older PC's where from the early 2000's or 90's then I doubt there is going to be much issue with speed capability or even ping times even.

I don't need to google what makes a home network setup, I built my own, along with another 5 years worth of jobs both consumer and commercial...

Homeplugs?

NO I HAVE NOT - I posted the same silly low ping from the TBB speedtestust - quit while you are behind.
