Tbh it depends on your connection itself. If you mean speed wise then for me its brilliant I get my full broadband speed through my PS3 but as you can see apparently cimt does not.

If your talking about online with lagg etc etc again this depends on what server your connecting to, what game your playing and what your BB connection is like at the time. Ive played some games with perfect connection and I've played others that are terrible.

Ah ok well and there are factors to take into account. Like traffic shaping, your BB connection speed and times that your downloading (peak or not). For me downloading almost always is very fast indeed. Some people dont get good speeds though and am not sure why tbh.
