Re: My new fibre install

You can't rely on the ping results from speedtest.net - mine regularly show in the 40s, but if I ping e.g. bbc.co.uk from a command window it's in the low 20s.

Re: My new fibre install

Not from our end really, we have very few tools on fibre lines so there isn't a great deal we can do. What are the pings at now and are they causing you issues?
