Most likely it will give unreliable ping and jitter, especially in Bweeng. It should be fine for some games like World of Warcraft. However, if you are waiting for Eircom, you could be waiting forever. If you’re playing FPS games like Counter Strike, then it is very unlikely that Amocom would be any good.

I think that charging an extra 30 Euro for the exact same modem is complete robbery. Can we send this message to as many as possible so they dont get caught out by paying an extra 30 euro for the same product!! www.3ireland.ie & www.carphonewarehouse.ie Just wanted to let you all know that today 3 Mobile Ireland launches its 3 pay (pre pay) broadband. 3 Sell the broadband modem for 149 Euro and Carphone warehouse.ie are selling the same modem for 179 Euro an extra 30 Euro.
