Rumour has it the Clonmel Region bandwidth is about to be upgraded to avoid peak time kazaa-heads depressing everyone. The next few days, apparently.

unfortunately it aint good, for broadband that is awfull. your boards.ie ping are about 10ms lower than a well tuned 56k connection and your jolt pings are average isdn standard. Pinging boards in Ireland using broadband is usually 22ms-35ms and jolt would be 30ms-40ms. Also the fact that your timing out would more than likely mean that in-game you would prolly lag every few seconds as ping would be 999+ momentarily.

heres my boards.ie ping
