That chair is 1M% better than the spine crunching thing I'm currently using.

What is your current broadband connection (xDSL, fibre, satellite, dial-up)

 

Skinny Fibre

 

Do you have a gaming setup?

 

No. I have an Xbox 360 if that counts :p

 

How would a Fibre Pro connection improve your gaming?

 

Will improve my son's gaming as he will no longer complain from lag. He is on wifi as we live in an apartment and cannot really run an ethernet cable to his room.

"What is your current broadband connection (xDSL, fibre, satellite, dial-up) and do you have a gaming setup?" 

 

Fibre 300/100 and a PS4 that I never get to use because the kids are always on it.

 

 

 

"How would a Fibre Pro connection improve your gaming?" 

 

With day 1 patches in the multi-gigabytes, I may be able to play that new PS4 game within 3 hours of putting the disc in.

Do you have a gaming setup? I have a PS5 but my TV blew up (literally) six months ago so just have a blank wall to look at now

 

How would a Fibre Pro connection improve your gaming? Should allow me to get back to gaming without hiccups when the rest of the family are also using the Wifi

Broadband connection: Fibre connection 20Km away (through 11Ghz 10km wirless link then through 10km 5Ghz link to house). Do have fibre at house but why pay for 2 fibre connections when you dont need to.

Gaming rig: died a few months ago unexpectedly and is now sitting on my work bench in the to hard basket.
So pulled out an old all in 1 dell i had in storage, cant game but can do as much as my cellphone when it comes to emails and forum posts....


Old rig sitting with dead Ubiquity unifi 24 port poe switch also in the man thats to hard basket.

How would fibre pro improve my gaming, not really sure until i have it

Currently using Spark gigabyte fibre. Happy with it for most time but there's some connection issue recently.

 

I play Dota a lot so my game set up is not so much about the machine's power but mainly focused on the internet speed. I had to buy the "game accelerator" to connect to Asia server for players population.

 

And this should also answer the question how would a Fibre Pro connection improve my gaming.

Currently on gigabit fibre, and have a basic gaming setup (it's mostly work related, so have 3 screens, but I use the middle one for gaming on PC and Xbox).  New toys always make you play better - known fact :)

Voda Fibre so Orcon fibre won't change much, and I honestly work too hard at the moment (I do miss my isometric RPGs) to get into gaming much so I tend to stare at this:

I currently use Stuff fiber. Current gaming setup is my iPhone. I’m not sure that FiberPeo would improve my gaming experience much - I just like free stuff!

"What is your current broadband connection (xDSL, fibre, satellite, dial-up)?

 

300Mbps fibre

 

do you have a gaming setup?

 

PS2 (don't laugh!)

 

How would a Fibre Pro connection improve your gaming?

 

Apparently I'd be able to play games without latency ..... if I had a gaming rig that played over the internet 😁

I currently have fibre (Slingshot).  My current gaming setup is a 2nd hand 6 year old PC.  Best part of this package would be a nice chair

Current broadband connection: Orcon 4Gb Hyperfibre

 

Gaming setup: Aurus "gaming" mobo, Ryzen3700x 32GB, 1TB & 2TB PCIE4 NVRAM, RTX2070

 

Fibre Pro would be a down grade... But my daughter would probably go nuts for it, although  I need all the advantages I can get.
