In the Mauritian Counter-Strike 1.6 gaming community we have 3 - 4
dedicated server hosts using the FTTA from Emtel. So far, I noticed that
connection to these servers have been quite stable. These servers often
have an up-time of up to 4 hours.

Using the in-game network tools to measure packet loss, over an extended
duration (2 or more hours), to these servers only revealed a low
percentage of packet loss. However, I am speaking about the UDP here.
The latency to these servers have also been quite stable with very few
fluctuations.

Each of these half-life dedicated servers has a different configuration
but has shown good stability.

I do not own a FTTA connection myself to perform an extended ping test
to various international servers.

Just wanted to add my two cents.
