| it seems that the lovely guys and gals over at eircom have decided to take the upgrade into full account after all. whether this be a little gift to us customers or a tactical move against smart telecom, who knows? the latter would make more sense in fairness..
so, whats the up's and downs of this upgrade? as far as i can see, there be only one and that is the download rate. no upload rate upgrade has been mentioned as far as i know.
so on with the jist.
---------
your current bandwidth reading is:
1.58 mbps
which means you can download at 202.24 kb/sec. from our servers.

cool! 202kbs from blacknight.ie
wow you say? this is amazing, fast speeds !!!
yeah, until you realise your ping is fucked again. seems i've an extra 15ms added onto my connection outside of uk/ireland, so gg.
hopefully this will be fixed soon, so i can continue my eircom propaghanda against all other people on dif isp's with higher pings!
on another note, seems quetzal from galway has an uber leet connection (ping wise). 13ms to local servers, 26 to uk, 27 to netherlands, 38 to germany/denmark and 52 to sweden. this is with wifi, who'd of thought?
