I think you are going dangerously off topic here buddy. It is one thing to criticise someones networking skills, its another entirely to start shit flinging about op fights. I am not going to pretend I know anything about networking but please dont go off topic into the wider points that you have personal beef with and use a thread solely about getting better network performance as a personal vehicle to attack a member of the support team. Be critical of development by all means, as an investor (of time if not money) then you absolutely have a right to criticize but do it in the right forum please.

The setups in this thread represent a broad range of BRITISH ISPs - I use caps to illustrate my point. None of us has the ability to gauge European ISPs if we live in the UK. We voted to leave all of that behind recently.

I think the valid points that come out of this thread are for gamers generally. If you want a good solid internet connection to game on then get a router.... thats what i took from the thread. For that reason I find it informative. If someone cares enough about a specific hobby they will look to get the best tools of the trade. Getting a good router is just as important as getting a good GFX card in another game. Why is the hardware here any different?


Id like the thread to continue because I am learning something here and am rather pleased that others with more knowledge can enlighten me on this subject as it is one I am a novice in and would like to improve my net connection.
