However, think it this way. If you are a singnet user, the only
bottleneck you may experience is the internet. What do I mean? As
you all know, the speed you are getting depends on the ISP
(Internet Service Provider) and the server you are connecting to
(Websites). Use Singnet plan, 5mbps, for an example.
Think it this way, you are a car (user) and you can travel at a
[b]dedicated max speed of 5km/hr. So now you are
travelling on a highway (the link between the you & internet),
however you can only travel at 2.5km/hr because of the speed limit
(Server/internet). But, if you travel on a highway with a speed
limit of 5km/hr, you can travel at full speed.
So the only bottleneck you might be experiencing is the speed
limiter of the highway. Which means, the amount of bandwidth the
servers allow you to use when you are connected to them.
However, for starhub user, it will be a different case. You will be
experiencing two bottlenecks instead of one. Why two? Think it this
way. Again, you are a car with a speed of 5km/hr. You are now
travelling on a highway (the link between you & internet) but
this time the highway is not dedicated, so there
are many cars (other users) on the highway because of that you can
only travel at 2.5km/hr instead of max 5km/hr.
Even if the speed limit of the highway is 5km/hr, you will still
travel at 2.5km/hr because of the other cars on the highway slowing
you down.
So the two bottlenecks you might experience is whether will there
be cars on the highway slowing you down and the speed limit of the
highway. Which means, it will depend on whether will there be many
starhub users using the net when you are using and how much
bandwidth will the server you are connected to allow you to
use.[/b]
why u all never caculate data loss through
transmitting....
both provider has its pro and cons
but if u are gaming like almost 24/7 u wont want singnet to keep on
disconecting (from RPG,CS dota)
