New isp for gaming

Hi Can anyone confirm if these isp are good for gaming
Plusnet
origin
bt
fast.co.uk
merula
Icuk

All fibre products I mainly play Bf4 and fifa
any other suggestions are welcome.

Their all generally speaking fine for gaming

I would probably go for ICUK or PlusNet

maybe try ZEN or Sky also.

Can I ask if you play fifa 15.

I do play it sometimes yes on PS4

no lag or disconnections that I can remember.

i play FIFA 15 everyday on PC and on sky the connection is always perfect with no lag

well as long as you are not using wireless

im on 40/10 fibre but i was using my next door neighbors sky LLU connection for a few days over xmas and even that was good for FIFA 15 just not great as i had to use wireless lol

Sky's like the devil to me lol.
Anyone experience fifa on bt infinity or plusnet fibre.

My son plays FIFA 14 and 15 with no problems even at peak evening times (Plusnet, PS3).

Have a read on Plunet's own forums (Gaming section) for any potential issues or tips:

May I ask what package you are on.
Also plusnet are supplying a new router you may want to check it out.
Also any thoughts on vivaciti or aquiss.

I am using my own router - Netgear N600 - and it does the job but will check out their new router as you suggest.

Does anyone know if bt infinity is having issues with fifa.

BT Consumer has 3 superfast customers for every 1 customer on all the other providers added together on the Openreach platform.

If there was a problem with the BT service, the forum would be alight with complaints. I have not noticed that the forum is alight with complaints.

Hi Alex I've decided on plusnet may I ask if your son's play titan fall or Bf4 also what router would you recommend netgear n600 or the belkin n600.

In reply to a post by Newguy12:

Which router is that? Is it no longer the TG582n?

The majority of issues with FIFA are due to EA needing further ports opened outside of the standard gaming platforms. EA have a few of their own outside of Xbox Live and PS Network with report to their own servers, which has been the case for about 10 years now.

You can find out more at FIFA 15 ports at EA Support

Thanks.

He only plays a few games with his friends: FIFA, COD, Formula 1. That's all. All games play fine with no lag as far as I am aware, otherwise I would have been on the phone to Plusnet. But this might be due to my good connection, I don't know. I use wired connection to PS.

I am afraid I cannot recommend any router as I am not an expert on them. I did my research when I joined Plusnet and Netgear was one of the router people mentioned at the time, so I got it based on my previous possitive experience with Netgear DG834. Looking at the reviews now on Amazon, it does have quite a few negative ones, but it works fine for me and there was a new software update for it last month.

I don't remeber tweaking the router but did follow some online guides on how to optimise the Playstation for gaming instead.

I think ASUS routers are now very popular and capable, so you might want to ask the question in the DSL Hardware forum.

And finally, I had some initial teething issues with Plusnet and feel it's worth mentioning.

It was when fifa 15 first got released dont know about now not played in months.

Wouldnt connect to EA servers
