Gaming Broadband

When it came to judging the Gaming Broadband award, Be was head and shoulders above the rest from the outset and were easily the best for gamers. In over 130,000 speedtests carried out on the Top 10 Broadband site Be was found to have the second highest download speed and customer satisfaction levels after O2, they were also found to have the highest upload speed of all providers.

Download allowance is also important to gamers and Be’s policy of offering unlimited packages and not throttling users with Fair Usage Policies, is exemplary. Be was also found to have low contention ratios (the number of people sharing a broadband connection at any one time) allowing them to offers speeds of up to 24Mb. On top of all of these factors Be’s Unlimited and Pro packages offer additional extras including a free Be-box ADSL2+ wireless router, active member forums and a static IP address.

Oli White, Head of Marketing at Be Broadband, said: “We are delighted to receive this award for Best Gaming Broadband. We know that Be Gamers gain an advantage over everyone else through Be’s lower latency rates, meaning that if you have Be Broadband you’ll be able to kill your online opponent quicker than they can kill you. Through initiatives such as the partnership with TWNA Group, and with more exciting gaming announcements coming soon, Be really is the choice for all serious gamers.”
