IMO we shouldn't have to avoid slow IP addresses. There's absolutely no reason why we should accept a shoddy service from TMnet and there should be no reason why I/we should have to keep reconnecting just for a few extra ms. We pay good money for a service which is unreliable. As customers, it is within our right to complain to tmnet to ensure that the services provided by them are running properly.
It is basically your (and that is everyone who has to suffer dropped packets and high latency) duty, if the services are not up to scratch, to make a complaint to tmnet.
This is basically a call to arms. If more of us actually make some noise then maybe we'll become loud enough for tmnet to hear.
ps. When you call them tell them to shove that stupid bandwidth test up their arses as it has absolutely no impact on latency. As a gamer I would rather have a stable low latency connection then the bandwidth.
As much as I agree with you and sympathize with you on this, I'm going to have to ask you to start another thread to keep arguments to a minimum on this thread. Since I'm not a moderator, I'm asking as nicely as I think I can.

And if you're expecting it to be my duty to rally for everyone, I'm going to have to pass on that because I get frustrated easily with hitting brickheads who know the obvious answers but are not taking it. But like I said, start another thread. Or better yet, think of a way to lead the changes needed. Posting up complaints on a forum that Streamyx and Telekom will most likely not read is not going to help matters, or even calling them when their helpdesk is known not to record down case numbers or that they can't deal with all the technical details.
For everyone else, this thread is not a Call-of-Arms thread. You can head over to the Network and Broadband Users for that or until someone post up another thread in WoW.
Also, please do not assume that I can do anything and everything. I'm a puny female, remember that.
