MIXU matty mc cloud QW posts : 219 site administrator ive donated to quake.ie! Ok, Ping war time again. At the moment Im on Eircoms package of 3072/384, based in central Dublin. I think its 49euro a month (expensive) but my ping is good, no wait; my ping is GREAT. Observe. admin@mixu ~ $ ping games1.iol.ie PING games1.iol.ie (193.120.123.136): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 193.120.123.136: icmp_seq=0 ttl=57 time=11 ms 64 bytes from 193.120.123.136: icmp_seq=1 ttl=57 time=10 ms 64 bytes from 193.120.123.136: icmp_seq=2 ttl=57 time=12 ms 64 bytes from 193.120.123.136: icmp_seq=3 ttl=57 time=12 ms ----games1.iol.ie PING Statistics---- 4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0.0% packet loss round-trip (ms) min/avg/max/med = 10/11/12/12 Yes, 12ms stable in game. Who owns you now? So lets break it down internationally: Ireland :: 13ms UK :: 25ms Netherlands :: 25/38ms Germany :: 38ms Denmark :: 38ms/52ms Sweden :: 52ms Spain :: 52ms Czech :: 52ms Norway :: 52ms Austria :: 52ms/65ms USA :: 92ms All above pings rock solid in quakeworld. I would also like to point out that Im using the PPPOATM option instead of the standard PPPOE with Eircom. There has been dispute that Eircom DOES NOT support ATM, it clearly does. Vinnit will also confess to his ms dropping 3-4ms by utilising this configuration. Comparisons please, Matt   edited by MIXU on 09/10/2006 15:39

09/10/2006 19:02 #1 Vinnit eamo . clan : fish heads posts : 171 Ya i used drawping in q3 and my ping was under 20ms for the first time. I probably wont use it for playing qw tho because it leaves my ping around 22 which is inbewteen 13 and 26ms which in qw messes the netcode up ever so slightly when your ping is not a division of the frame rate you have. My connection will be 2mb instead of 1mb from tomorrow so ill see if that lowers the ping at all.   edited by Vinnit on 09/10/2006 19:03

29/10/2006 19:37 #10 melachi Nasty fucker posts : 258 administrator the ping is "good" but its no fucking great Its been like this for a couple of months since eircom got rid of interleaving completely and added some more UL speed. great ping <10ms to neighbouring countries. Sucks that theyve done this now when most people arent even playing anymore. last time I played quake feels like a century ago.   edited by melachi on 29/10/2006 19:40

21/11/2006 02:42 #13 MIXU matty mc cloud QW posts : 219 site administrator ive donated to quake.ie! Do NOT go with Magnet. 38ms to IE, 65 to UK, 110 to DK. This is on 8mb "no contention ratio". Magnet may be good on a smaller connection as they might use less interleaving. Personally, I wouldnt have anything to do with them. Check boards.ie regarding configuring their modems.

24/03/2007 09:16 #19 Sam sam posts : 2 alright eamo ya bleedin soap dodger, hahah im guessing youre basing what you said on stuff i told ya 5 years ago, because what youre saying reminds me of stuff ive said to you which was based on stuff al said to me in 2001 or so, except youre saying it wrong. the network ping is actually best for qw when its stable, and far away from boundary pings like 13, 26, etc. (which are multiples of the time per frame at 77fps). Vinnit: "..which is inbewteen 13 and 26ms which in qw messes the netcode up ever so slightly when your ping is not a division of the frame rate you have."
