Best ISP for Gaming?

Sinz · Postby **Sinz** » March 29th, 2012, 12:34 am

I was just curious on what you guy's thoughts were on the top local ISP for gaming. I currently use FLOW's Turbo 15 package, and it works phenomenally. Exceptionally fast download speeds (15mbps) with a ton of upload bandwidth (2mbps). I get low pings just about all the time which results in almost no lag what-so-ever. All for $300 per month. I'm totally please with the service. How bout yall?

Yeah right now you're on the best tone.

Had a lot of issues with blink and PSN , since I switched to flow everything has been perfect . When I had blink I would usually called twice a week because my net always flocking up. Since I have flow almost 1 year now I never once had reason to call them.

Yes,Flow is the best, had it for over 2yrs,Absolutely no problems, unlike Blink where almost every week the exchange in my area used to crash and I had to call TSTT twice a week.Also to remove the firewall as well,they were resistant to change it for me. For me Flow customer service they were polite and very helpful.

and yes, i love telling cool stories too.

Well I use Blink and its quite perfect. Never have any problem I play DOTA 2 and HON online all the time never any issues. Bad Company 2 etc online no issues.

Depends on where you are in trinidad. I just lucky that Piarco have real bess Blink internet. Technically speaking DSL is supposed to be one of the most reliable technology.

Nah cable is better and more reliable lol.

^ but ent Cable is shared? where as DSL is dedicated? therefore making DSL the better choice?

Cable net is out of the question for me though. Flow has absolutely no plans of bringing that to Piarco in the near future.

In the perfect world, this would hold true, but we are not in a perfect world and Blink is pure fail

Wait wait..you said you pay $300 for the 15 mb connection?

How is this? Is not $400?

And btw anyone here plays League of Legends and gets intermittent lag issues? Contacted Flow and they did some testing, and ofc said its not on their side, while Riot games said the problem is not on their side either :roll:

I play Cod4, MW2, MW3 without any lag issues. Cod4 is still the best tho.

EDIT: I checked their website and its forking $300. Wasnt it $400 before? Cuz I distinctly remeber not wanting an unnecessary net bill of $400 a month :shock:

fouljuice · Postby **fouljuice** » April 2nd, 2012, 8:16 pm

^^ $400 is for the 25mb

i use flow 25mb and honestly no big big difference between d 5mb and the 25m,b cuz i still get d same sheit lag...only main difference i experiencing is the download speeds for them big a$$ updates for ps3...and to download games over PSN but as far as online play itself its almost the same...no noticeable difference...i do pull host half of the times but as a result i get a shitty host lag and everyone else on my side gets a 4 bars and do really good while i catchin a$$ and still gettin lag even tho it sayin i have 4 bars too
