So is this a permanent change? or just temporary until they get everyone's speed upgraded?
I suspect that while my latency to the POP won't increase much, I do all my gaming on east coast servers, and routing from Denver to LA then to NY is going to suck big time. I already have problems with certain servers that only talk to SE through San Francisco, I can't imagine how much worse it'll be when ALL east coast servers behave that way. (min ping 150 or so).
I'd rather be backhauled to Chicago or NY. One of the main reasons I signed up for speakeasy in the first place was because they had a Denver POP. If it's temporary, I'll ride it out.
If not, Comcast just installed fiber in my neighborhood. If speakeasy is gonna lower my performance this may finally be the push that sends me over to cable. |

Well, having just come over from Comcast, I would have killed for only 150ms ping times.
Nothing like being on an oversold node to keep that latency up, or just wait till the kid down the block starts downloading mp3's 24/7.
