You think some of the speeds are bad here? I've been on DSL for pretty much a decade now and almost always been the same speed...512kbps! It now varies between .5mb-1mb connection.
However the saving grace is I've always <50ping in every game I've played and it's nice and steady too. Just lucky I'm not one for downloading much and if needed then I'll just pop down my mates house who has 50mb BT Infinity line which is like 5minutes drive away, doh lol!
To the OP ,make sure you get on the talktalk support forum and ask them to switch you from interleaved to a fastpath profile , it will drop your speed slightly but will drop your ping quite a lot which is far more immportant for gaming .
I used to play Quake deathmatch over 28.8k. You ungrateful young whippersnapper.
If your mate lives 5 minutes away with a connection like that, surely you can access much better than 512k?
Fastpath increases the speed, however can make the line unstable too.
Unless Talktalk fastpath is different to Be*.
Nope. Fastpath is fastpath on all ADSL1/2+ providers. Interleave can vary somewhat, however.
Then it should cause a little increase in speed with a reduction in ping too![]()
