Get the best performance from my connection?

Netgear DGN2000
8128 / 448
When I do a speed test I got 6272 / 378
Broadband package is plusnet pro - not restricted in anyway (so they say) apart from 20gb download limit during peak hours.
What I'm really after is super low ping times for xbox live & fastest speed for downloading when I need to.
Thanks!

Otherwise if your IP Profile reported by the BT Speed test is 7150 and the current line speed reported by https://portal.plus.net/my.html?action=data_transfer_speed is also 7150 you're getting the maximum possible speeds.

you should have a profile of 7150, which will give you about 6500 download. and a better ping, if that is possible, I am not a gamer but your looks good.
how long have you been on broadband? as it can take up to 10 days to reach full speed

I have just changed from the Premier 1 package to the Plusnet Pro
Not sure if Interleaving is on/off yet.. I got these ping times before I asked to have it disabled.
Heres a bit of the ticket:
=========================================
Your interleaving request has been processed
Interleaving type :- Disabled
Supplier Reference :- 1-TR4U1U
Estimated completion date:- 2nd Feb
Please note interleaving is used as a form of error correction and on some occasions can cause instability of your line, if a fault is raised on your circuit then interleaving may be required to stabilise your line.
=============================================
Cheers

If I can learn & understand things its easier to spot / fix any issues.
Most people on here have been very helpful indeed - One member actually got me back online within 10mins when I was waiting 48hours to a replay to one of my technical support tickets

That is totally out of order and definitely not the spirit we want to encourage on these forums.
Quote from: kinginter I just got a private message saying I'm wasting everyones time with pointless posts. If this is the case just let me know people.
