What does interleaving(think tis that) actually do? I never had it turned off with my old isp, Ive heard it lowers ping. And as im a gamer it would be good if thats the case!
Does it do anything else other than that? And if it does lower the ping how can i go about turning it off.
Thanks

Interleaving basically increases your ping times by a relatively small amount, but it also improves the stability of your broadband connection.
If things were okay gaming wise with your previous ISP, then I'd leave it on initially and we can always try turning it off for you, if you'd like us to try.

I got 40 ping or so with AOL, but evenings i had awful lag, especially on ventrilo (16k ping sometimes)
Im guessing 40 or so is pretty good though? i see some with 20 and lower though.
Althought i do live in north wales!

thats what i get on fastpath from just south of sheffield
40ms is fine for interleaving.
the thing with other isps which you have seen is in the evening the ping times are very variable where with PN they remain very stable 24/7 so best ping of 40ms interleaved on PN is normally better than say o2 with say a best ping of 10ms but there network gets very clogged up so that ping can be in to the 100's at night
where your interleved ping will stay at 40ms when o2's is in the 100's which = game set advantage for PN customers

the diffrence between the pro package and unlimited is that pro has all traffic in the gold(streaming web browsing) and titatium(gaming, voip) queues.
where unlimited has traffic in alot lower prioitys as well as the gold and titanium queues.
as pc games use diffrent ports ip address some times PN dont have the game in the titanium queue.
so for happy free lag pc gaming on unlimited its a gd idea to get to know wireshark which we use to see what prioity traffic is getting over the PN network and if its being picked up wrong we hand the wireshark captures to PN and they come up with a signature to get it on the titanium queue normally takes about a week for them to make a sig and get it live
info from PN on how to use wireshark there is all so some video how to's on PN if you just type wireshark in to the main PN seach bar they will pop up

have you set your MTU, rwin up right.
try login in to your router and set the mtu to 1500 and see if you have any problems if not then the mtu on your pc was set higher than that on your router and packets had to be fragmented to pass through your router.
just one soultion and may not work but sure some others will be long with the big heads full of information to help
