pinging gateway

[f0kKeR]

is an average of 36ms ping to my gateway good or bad? if bad, then what are the pings i should be getting?

That's a taste high, but not horrible by any means. Especially for a Sunday evening when traffic is a bit on the high side. I am getting 10-22 on mine right now.

My average is 26ms.

The real question is "What kind of problem are you having?" Ping times are important but if your speeds are good, then who really cares?

John, did you transition yet? :D

Check out www.dslreports.com for some good tweaks and speed tests. If your running at good speeds don't worry about it. :rotfl:

I get 7-8ms. (But i'm 25 kilometres away)

@John- no..i'm not a pothead:D

because i also play online games, which require good ping times.

I don't think that 36ms to your gateway is that bad. Yes, people get better, but some people get worse.

There isn't much that your ISP will do unless you have 300+ ms pings within their network.
