Solving Tiscali ISP problem (for UK gamers)

[wallsfantasy]

Hi guys,

I've played RO for 2 weeks and I found that I can't connect/disconnected from Horus around 8pm (GMT) every day until 4am. I've googled for a while and found that Tiscali (my ISP) reduced bandwidth for bulk download and online game in high traffic period and it's too slow so we can't login/being kicked off.

I also found a temporary fix that work for me here:

I think Tiscali squeeze too much from the customer and there's no way I'd know this problem in advance. I'm on contract so goes for BT, O2, Virgin or whatever u can. Save a lot of headache!

Reducing access to online games is outrageous. What do they want us to do, go back to the days of email and usenet?

(I can sort of see reducing file-sharing bandwidth, but do online games really use up that much of the pipe?).
