UK Players - Which ISP are you using?

[Dennis Kwek]

Hi to all playing AC in the UK :)

Just out of curiosity, I'd like to know what ISPs are you guys using to
play AC?

I've been using two ISPs, my regular crappy NTL Internet and the more
consistent Demon. NTL has been a real pain in the butt when it comes to
AC... Disconnections, slow links, and the worst of the lot - black
holes, where packets from the server are being received but none of my
packets are getting to the server... so I'm usually running on the spot
or frozen while everyone is talking or running past me etc... or
monsters chewing me bit by bit. Pinging the zone at this time would
usually return with 'unable to find ip address'. This happens fairly
consistently with NTL.

I tend to play with Demon during peak hours... better connections to the
zone and less blackhole effects.

Any other UK players who are using different ISPs who would highly
recommend their ISPs?

I'm very tempted by the BT Surftime when it comes out in April, but I'm
not sure how BT Internet's performance is like for playing MMORPGs like
AC etc...

Appeared to work OK on the beta.
