Poor connections is a big part of the community and playerbase that has that, that is why you can't just switch type.

Connection is not the same as how much you can download or upload per second either, can't measure it in that.

My connection EU side gives me a ping at around 16ms to the server... I live in Denmark and the Server is in Frankfurt Germany, thats 830km distance you can then have another ISP that runs in different network and have 2-3x times higher ping but the same down/upload.
