Dunno if this is just me but using BT Internet 0800 ISDN dialup gave me pings of 250+ to all BW servers over the weekend.

I did a traceroute and it seems that the connection went via Holland and covered 18 hops! Connections to Nildram and Claranet servers were 9 hops and pinged 80-90! I even got a sub 100 ping on XS4ALL!

So is this BT's fault or are BW 'discouraging' non-BW dialup users?!

ps. what was up with the bonding? I had 3 devices bonded at one point! (there exist only two!) and it appeared that the 128k connection was in fact a 64K judging by the download speeds attained! And the disconnection after two hours was b0rked, I was on for 13 hours was still connected at 1am last night! (fingers crossed for when i get home)
