dropped my ping from 80's - 90's to 35-40. Noticed an immediate difference. Have since posted several high 20's game, and a 34. I know I know, :csb:

nice.

i'm at 12mbps with a steady <40ms ping, but i lucked up by living a block from the main fiber optic line system that runs thru downtown houston.

awesome interwebs makes a hell of difference in gaming.

I've got it through the cable company, i can get up to 60 mbps, i might get that when i get OT money.

But seriously the difference is very very noticeable.

I don't know how you do it. I can't play when my ping gets in the 80s. I start skipping all over the place.

gotta get OT money brah. I was paying 29.99 for 12 mbps and 9.99 for a wireless router, never used the wireless, my laptop is a POS and if i need to look at something online while in the living room i always use my phone, so i dumped the networking, upgraded to 18 mbps and kept the same price.
