I'm not greatly bothered, the ping is still low, but having seen people with even half the ping (with Nildram, too) I thought I may as well look into it.
I'm using a wired connection to my router (about 2 meters worth of network cable from the pc) which then connects to the master phone socket (again, about 2 meters from the router). I've also tried using a couple of different Microfilters.
I'm currently using a D-Link DSL-G604T with Nildram 8mb. I had similar pings (if not a couple of ms lower) when I was still with Pipex, using a different router (which I don't have anymore). I'm guessing this is generally due to the fact I live in a village so am probably not directly on a fast pipe. There are no problems with congestion and whatever on my exchange according to various online sites, and the ping remains the same throughout anytime of the day.

Tracerts:
The first hop always seems pretty high, possibly due to BT? (most things are
)
I get the same ping results from doing it internally within my router bypassing any computers.
Any ideas? Thanks.

. As said, I'm not entirely bothered just it would be nice if their was something I was completely missing. Thanks anyway.
