How is Railwire for gaming and stability?

Skye · Sep 11, 2020

Hey there!

I read a lot of problems regarding Railwire broadband. However, it would be great for me if you can list them here, especially regarding gaming and the overall stability (speed, downtimes, packet loss etc.).

I saw that a lot people were having issues with CODM and PUBGM, is that resolved? And are you facing problems even in PC games or only these two?

@Amitbitm My speed is still fluctuating a lot. Nowhere close to what it was without gaming IP.

I'm having the same issue, after they assigned gaming ip the speeds fluctuates a lot. I'm routed through Delhi servers now instead of Mumbai, IDK why?

Previously I used to get speeds of 30+Mbps on fast.com(10mbps connection) now I'm getting 15mbps, even though its good, the actual speeds while downloading from netflix is 600KBps, there was no improvement in pings though.
Getting ping of 50ms on Railtel Delhi
Ping of 100ms on Railtel Mumbai

@yr_1009 I used to get 30-40Mbps in fast.com too... Since gaming IP, it is like 10-17Mbps max... Speed fluctuates a lot in other servers too... .-.

I raised a ticket to them @ morning, was disconnected for a min now, and now my ping to mumbai is 20ms. I suggest you do the same. Here's what I told them
Dear sir, although the speed issue is solved, I'm getting higher pings on Railtel Mumbai server(screenshot attached). The games I play most often has server's in Mumbai, before assigning the gaming ip, I used to get pings of under 50ms(best I got is 14ms) to Railtel Mumbai, Doesn't Ganing IP should have better routing and better pings? I can see that I'm routed through Delhi first. Please fix this issue and don't close this ticket before confirming the solution with me. You know where you can reach me.
