Re: Choke on all steam games since switched to PlusNet Unlimited

Well it's ultimately up to you, when you come to putting up that ticket it will give you a warning that it can result with an unstable line so interleaving would be put back on if so.  Obviously slight lag is better than being kicked out of games for loss of connection all the time.
Plus don't base this experience as the norm. I have to say I've had problems of my own and the guys are usually pretty damn helpful and full of knowledge that I don't have. I recommend these forums as a come to if in trouble.

Re: Choke on all steam games since switched to PlusNet Unlimited

Okay thanks very much for the advice.
But still, this may not even fix it so can anyone else think of any other reasons this could be happening!?

Re: Choke on all steam games since switched to PlusNet Unlimited

from your stats picture I assume you have a Netgear Router - can you advise the model.
The reason for asking is that it might be possible to extract more information - specifically the corrected and uncorrected errors. If these are high it could mess up switching interleaving off

If you download Routerstats and install it you should be able to get a screen like this which gives a lot more information http://www.vwlowen.co.uk/internet/files.htm

You don't need to upload the images to tinypic to post them on here. If you open the Additional Options you will find you can attach them directly to your posts.

Re: Choke on all steam games since switched to PlusNet Unlimited

As I said in my PM those results are very good - very few errors
I should raise a ticket asking for interleaving to be switched off
