Exit node to Europe
-
Well, it seems that when we play in Europe all ISPs come out of the same place in Spain. I don't know why the speeds we reach have decreased in this way. I mean the PING I have always had ONO,... Okay.. I start the retaila Madritel which went to Auna which went to ONO which went to Vodafone... I think I haven't left anyone out. Before when I played I mean 6 or 7 years ago I had a great ping in Europe. Now I have a ping of around 40. Before it was less. At first I thought it was my ISP's fault but then I connected to Movistar with their 300 symmetrical and I have the same ping. And we all come out of the same place. Anyway. How about a ping improvement campaign? I mean something could be done at that node to improve the connection of everyone when we come out of Spain.

I have been living in the UK for the past three years with fiber optic connection, and specifically the last year with 1 Gigabit FTTH (1Gb / 1Gb).
Going back to the Spanish reality is going to be hard, I'm afraid, my ping used to be between 12 and 20 milliseconds depending on the game, but it was almost always 16ms.

Well, I don't know.
I fondly remember those games with the 64K modem on Quake or HL with a ping of 250; later, when I got ADSL I never played below 75, and those were the best...
I remember back then envying those with fiber for the "fastpath of the balls" and the number of protocols we used that they didn't.
Now, with my fiber from both Oño and Naranja, I only get a ping of 15 ms on national servers playing Team Fortress 2, which is the only FPS I play.
The norm now is a ping starting at 45 for Europe, and over 80 for USA and 120 for Russia.Besides, latency is one thing and bandwidth is another...

It was already predicted many years ago...

What a scare you've given me.
