Until now I've put up with crappy connections and not being able to get on good servers (if at all). I want to join the BF4 for Christmas break. Can someone help with the following:
Is adsl feasible for gaming or do I insist on fibre? We're in london with a very congested exchange and in a flat block that probably has awful wiring going by the state of everything else in the communal + services areas.
How much download allowance should I need for regular evening + weekend gaming fests? Would 100GB a month suffice?
Should I be looking to get something like this Draytek 2920n http://www.draytek.co.uk/products/vigor2920.html - would it help over the cheapo default router options?
Is a static IP important/necessary/worth having?
How much do upload speeds matter? Is there a min target upload speed I should be looking to get?
Presumably ping is the real issue, but doubt the ISP will be able/willing to promise that...
