some good news for all of us who play quake 3 on barrysworld servers. eircom and indigo are no longer routed through amsterdam meaning much lower pings can be achieved on these isps.

i emailed bigfoot recently to see about getting barrysworld linked more directly to eircom and since eircom already peered with the london internet exchange it was easy enough for barrysworld to get in touch with them and cut out the nasty european detour. pld bw.

if heanet peers with linx then yeah, you should email barrysworld and ask them to try and make heanet route more directly to it. I know heanet and janet are linked direclty, and janet pings about 5 on barrysworld.... there must be a way to link the 2 without going half way around europe. the bw tech team might be able to sort it.

I got the best out of indigo there then any of the others. Solid 30 ping in dos, very flat netgraph, around 10 hops.... overall pinging about 10 less then eircom (which in q3 is all fuckedup with the netcode.... its just slightly better then eircom subscription).

I'm dialling the local dublin number though... so I don't know indigo mightn't be any good on country nodes or 1891 numbers.
