you realise that pings to their websites aren't likely to be an indicator of pings in games??

good enough for comparison purposes tho i suppose
 
You also realise that where you are is going to make more of a difference than the ISP you're with, and someone else on either the same or a different ISP doesn't guarantee your performance (so in other words once you've eliminated Tiscali et al, you're mostly plucking at straws)?
 
nope

its well documented that zen are rubbish for pings

the speeds are fine, but zens routing sux

Only if you live in the south, and you're heading for a destination in the south, which comes back to what I said - your ping's going to vary more on its journey through BTw's network (which depends on where you are) than it ever will on its journey through any decent ISP's network.

I typically get ~30ms to Jolt, and much the same to CERN. On Zen, in Scotland - the same, if not better, than what I got when I was on Plusnet (and that was before it completely turned to crap), who terminate their Centrals in London.

Always had pings less than 20ms to jolt. Been with zen for 4 years now.

As has been said a lot depends on where you are and where your isp based and where you are pinging. Zen's main datacentre is in Rochdale so obviously if you live daaarn saaarf you ping will be higher compared to an isp with a datacentre in london for example. Making sweeping statements about an ISP based on heresay is pointless.

Always had pings less than 20ms to jolt. Been with zen for 4 years now.

As has been said a lot depends on where you are and where your isp based and where you are pinging. Zen's main datacentre is in Rochdale so obviously if you live daaarn saaarf you ping will be higher compared to an isp with a datacentre in london for example. Making sweeping statements about an ISP based on heresay is pointless.

Yes they are rubbish for me for pings:-

Reason they have routing going to Manchester before anywhere else

This adds about 10ms or more to my first hop then further 10ms to London

So im + 20ms before it’s even reached London’s gaming servers.

I have no problem with Zen other than their routing is rubbish.

Speeds are fine [apart from last 2 weeks but now ok]

CS is good etc.

I only use my connection for online gaming, so im after the best ISP with the best routing to do this.

Hence why im asking for trace routes to my fav servers.

so keep em coming :D im sure others will use this thread with interest
 
And 5 posts ago...

where you are is going to make more of a difference than the ISP you're with

You implied they were rubbish for everyone, and it was "their routing that sux" too, which also isn't true. It's nothing to do with the ISP's routing, and everything to do with BTw's (often circular) routes.

If it's a "London-based" ISP you're after then for starters, Pipex/Nildram/F2S, Eclipse, Plusnet, Enta all (at least used to) terminate their Centrals in London. Whether I'd recommend any of them over Zen is debatable (Pipex group shaping/dodgy support, Eclipse punting users to Tiscali LLU, Enta patently lying that they're maxing out their Centrals)
 
why are you sticking up for zen?

and they are rubbish for pings, for people who live outside manchester

im saying what i get and others get on adslguide


i wouldnt touch eclipse,nildram,pipex,aol,tiscali

Hardly - I'd probably be with an Enta reseller if they hadn't turned to mush.
I'm pointing out the flaws in your crummy argument (and let's face it, it isn't hard) that you're using to find a new ISP, which are:
  • The biggest part of the latency to somewhere (in the UK) is within the BTw network between you and the other end of the ISP's Central
  • Someone else's pings don't necessarily resemble what you'd get if they're in a different part of the country (see point 1)
  • Someone on the same exchange's pings aren't necessarily representative - it wouldn't be the first time different VPs have been routed via different RASs (see point 1)

and they are rubbish for pings, for people who live outside manchester

On Zen, in Scotland - the same, if not better, than what I got when I was on Plusnet (and that was before it completely turned to crap), who terminate their Centrals in London.

So wrong again. Need we keep going round and round?
