Fastest ISP?

[Phen8210]

The previous test results still apply when it comes to China. M1/SIMBA are pretty bad. Starhub is slightly better. Singtel is better. MR gamer plan is the best.

Reference: Singtel is not bad for China.

IMHO.
Got any specific way to test Chinese servers or just have to ownself consolidate ping/traceroute ?

And M1 has no real improvement with the new XGS-PON based plans.

In terms of China, from good to bad.
1) MR Gamer
2) Normal MR or SingTel (WC may be similar to SingTel)
3) StarHub (eight may well be similar)
4) VQ
5) M1
6) SIMBA

Not sure if I did it right.
Data retrieved today. They are averages. Creds to @seowbin for the original from Feb 2024.
Excludes anything outside China region. globalping.io is better for those.

Moi used excel feature and color scales to make it more colourful

Included moi network to pit against the big boys as well
I removed MR biz since here mostly consumer ( i suspect biz and gamer is the same routing anyway)

Hi, can you clarify what tool or url did you use to do these tests? Because i tailscale to my friend's MR 10gbps gamer plans and his ping to china taobao/douyin is horrible and worst than my 1gbps legacy singtel fibre. Not saying your stats are inaccuracy, just wanted to find out more whether is it his problem or something amiss from the stats. In any case i also find it quite incredible to believe that the MR 10gbps gamer's plan has better pings. I'm kinda sceptical about MR because alot of my users using MR complain about high latency.

I hope you could do the tests again, maybe their standards has dropped overtime.

Read the first post in this thread.

BTW, Singtel is pretty good for China, no matter the legacy plans or the new XGS-PON based plans.

Latest test was done on 8 April 2926.

btw from the stats, most of china ping is more than 150+ms other than china unicom. So it's either the MR gamer stats is wrong according to what i tested on my friend tailscale network because it's so much worst than mine or the singtel stats on the table is wrong.

You can post your legacy Singtel results.

And you can also post the bad MR Gamer test results so other users can verify. You may also check again using the same method mentioned.

Take note Singtel has many IPv4 address segments and the results can be different.

MR Gamer is known to be the best as per existing test results.

Does your friend have Static IPv4 add-on? The reported MR Gamer plan tests done are more likely to be tested with that (done by power users).

Without a static IPv4 address actually you cannot test to the home router, only to the upstream MR IPv4 address, but that should be okay as well.

okok thanks for clarification! Let me check again on my friends network and update here again!
