Isn't that latency a bit high for FTTP? Thought BT based latency was closer to 10 or less?

speedtest.net reported latency 6ms when I switch over to Windows 10 x64 from Linux.

Running Think Broadband Speedtest using IPv6 using Windows 10. Maybe latency much better than Linux, I don't know - I have no idea. Maybe someone will tell you.

Nah, I stick to adslmax.

Sorry forgot I needed to be specific. It's an Openreach provided network, providing a BT Wholesale product to an ISP.

I assume Aquiss is using BTw but of course not all Openreach FTTP ISPs are using BTw.

Still, the latency is high for a FTTP product from my experience, unless I'm out the loop with my altnet latency figures.....

Yes, neighbours on toob have lower, but its a graphical browser speed test, perhaps even over a WiFi rather than an ICMP echo from a router or PC on a hard wired ethernet. I’m on virgin media coax/DOCSIS and have much higher… I don’t think max is a gamer, I might be wrong.

No, I don't play gaming on PC. I use to play Microsoft Flight Simulator X but not anymore.

I think a simple ping from a device your end will be inline with the BQM data whereas the browser test is likely to be around double that.

Or even more... my BQM shows a latency of around 7-8mSec (command line pings a bit less), a speedtest gives 27mSec. (IPv4 and IPv6 give essentially identical results)

That looks good Max, confims what I thought, that the web speedtest "ping" is something different.
