So Sky in their wisdom are hiking prices again. So it gives me an out from Sky Fibre, its been ok, I see slowdowns and my ping isn't the greatest compared to other suppliers I have had. Then there is the whole MER issue that is a pain in the neck.
Any thoughts on alternative ISP? Don't want to go above £35 per month and need unlimited downloads and an 80/20 product.
Cheers!

Finally switched today after two aborted attempts by OpenReach.
So far speed is around the same but I guess this will adjust over time. Ping has reduced by nearly 10ms as far as I can tell.

That would be G.INP kicking in.

No G.INP for me yet, on an ECI cabinet and the new trial hasn't rolled out to our cab yet.
Here are the line stats though:

I was getting mixed up. You almost certainly started with interleaving plus 8ms "delay" parameter.
