I just wanted to say that Woosh wired DSL is awesome, they also provide the option with interleaving on or off, I am currently on orbit pro20 full speed up and down with interleaving off, and I get around about 20 Latency. Do recommend the service for gaming...
Xnet offer a similar service, I'm told with good technical support for $70.43 (less if you use less data, you only pay for what you use) Compared to the $79.95 + $10 minimum toll call spend on orbit pro 20
I switched from Ihug to Woosh last year. Much better speed and less disconnections. Recently, my International speed start to fluctuate. Sometimes I get 4000kbps from LA, sometimes only getting 500kbps. I get same answer as I was getting from Ihug:" ADSL is not guaranteed service" from them. I don't know if ISPs can give you better speed when you first join, then slow you down after a few month. I was looking to join Xnet. But I saw a lot of people complaining about Xnet on another forum as well. It's so hard to choose an ISP. I haven't seen an ISP that doesn't have complaints.
One of my mates are on xnet , it started well with interleaving off , but they have some how disable the interleaving which left him with a normal DSL latency when he games...Are thet allowed to do that ?
