I had residential service through Broadstripe at 15/2 which was really good for gaming, but I was thinking that the business class would be even better for gaming. I was totally wrong. For one I was told by my business sales rep that it was going to be a dedicated line and that no one but me would be using that bandwidth. Second they said that my pings where going to be cut in half because it was a dedicated line with a static ip address. They also said I should never drop below 8/2. I was always below that. So I called support yesterday the 30th and they said they were going to send a tech out today the 31st. Well the tech got here around 12pm and he was done by 12:15pm. He said that everything looks good, which I already knew because I did some looking online on how to check my signal strengths at my modem. As soon as he went out the door I called Broadstripe to switch back to residential service. May 7, 2011 Well it has been a while since I updated this and tell you the truth it is doing a lot better. My speeds are a lot better and gaming still has some issues with pings and lag, but by what I was told Broadstripe does not support gaming online. I really wish they would take the time to fix some of the problems with there high latencies. Everyone I play online with has 4 bars where I always have 3. All of my friends have Comcast. Oh well I guess one day I will have 4 bars hopefully. Still doing good. September, 12 2012 Ever since W.O.W took over my service is doing really well. I cant wait till they start the new 30Mpbs and 50Mpbs tiers. member for 20 years, 924 visits, last login: 2.8 years ago updated 11.5 years ago
