Hi all,
first of all, im new to the forum so hi to all =)

Now here comes the question, Im currently on go large which is set to close for 30th Oct. now im planning to switch to Big Time. but my main concern is the latency while gaming during peak hours (i play DOTA on garena mainly joining Aus hosts)

(i think the connect to NZ hosts is perfectly normal, just the aus ones, even for the past few days during the evening i was unable to play with auss host even though im still on go large)

i have read around noticing some people whos on Big time saying there is unbearable latency while playing CoD4 or other games on Aus servers where the ping is >300ms, but then some people say xtra is fixing it. im quite confused, also im not that advanced with the internet connections and all so what kinda stuff are shaped and what isnt?(i know stuff like p2p is and rapid share is as well, then i read about people saying SSL connections or something isnt shaped at all, because  im not that advanced with all the connections anyone care to explain in simple terms?)  

any help would be appreciated.

(i just read what i said, think its pretty confusing, basically, will i be able to play dota on aus servers at say 9pm.and what stuff are shaped and what isnt)
