Hi, I'm current on SH's 8Mbps service and I am thinking of switching to their surflite plan which is at 2Mbps.
Just wonder if there's any impact on online gaming performance between the 2 plans, as my speedtest.net results never really reach 8Mbps anyways.
Games I play include Guild Wars, Starcraft and some old FPS like CS.
Interested to hear opinions for those who are using the surflite package, thanks! :)

soyo,
8mbps for SH seriously got problem already if you still downgrade, yr online game will not be able to play...
best advise change to singtel or m1 if you having alot of problem for your area...

I don't have any problems with SH right now actually when playing games, I'm just wondering if the 2Mbps plan is actually enough for gaming if connection is good.
