Sorry for the late reply as well. I have disconnected Stormfiber for more than 3 months now (only used it for 3 months). First month they had pie bandwidth - then they switched to tw and went downhill while at the same time Fiberlink was also using TW bandwidth but went uphill.

Long story short - Stormfiber really shiet (at least for me) atm so no game ;D! GG GL

Would you say Fiberlink is better for gaming?
How about pings to: Singapore, Dubai and India? Thanks.

From Feb-March of this year till now, Fiberlink has been consistently good for gaming (minus a few weeks hither and thither).

80-100 ms to Singapore
28-40 ms to Dubai
38-50 ms to India
130-150 ms to EU

For the last 2 weeks though, routing has again been changed. On most tracerts via WinMTR, results show higher latencies; while in-game I still get the latencies stated above.

Waiting for SMW5 to reach end consumers ;D!

In Model Town F-Block. Got the 10mb 5k installation offer installed today. Will upgrade to 20mb next month. Working great for now. Probably never going to look back at shittyCL as long as im getting this service. 150 ping League's euw server feels orgasmic after 220-250 ping on ptcl.

GUYS I NEED HELP

I got stormfiber about 2 weeks back .. I mainly use it for gaming .. heavily into dota, overwatch etc.

For the first week the performance (in terms of ping/latency) was great. I used to get SEA 105, Dubai 60 etc. really good and stable. Im happy with those numbers. I live in model town lahore btw.

Unfortunately though, since the past 2 days my pings have been very bad. Like 200+ sea etc. and they also have been fluctuating. Ive complained to stormfiber about this to them. Pleading to them that I got the internet only for gaming and if pings arent stable/reliable then it beats the purpose. They say they will try but cannot commit on latency.

My question is why is this happening with me when everyone else is getting reliable 100 avg ping on SEA?

What can i do about this? Who can i contact in stormfiber who will actually help me?

Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks

It happens due to high load on storm fiber servers or the upstream providers issue

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

  • L LegacyGamerGuy:
    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!
