I never knew all of this until I read my new ISP's Forum.
I have a new ISP with "FastPath" with a SNR Margin of 6.0 db. Apparently FastPath is better latency for online gaming? but can make more line errors?
I wanted to hear your views about these kinda things

Really, if your connection is below 8 mbit you should get the speed of the ADSL connection you pay for with zero packets dropped. How they achieve that technically is their problem, but since they sell 20+ mbit ADSL connections these days, the quality and length of your phoneline sould not be too great an obstacle for a good connection.
On the other hand, being able to find out yourself if your phoneline is poor could be useful. And sacrificing speed for reliability might be an option in such a case, though not worth it if the added latency (20-40ms) they mention is a true figure.

I played with fastpath for 2 years, i earned generally 15ms of latency on most servers. Depending on how far your line is from your network linking knot (not sure about the term in english), then you 'll know if your packet loss will be a problem or not. Usually above 1800m you better keep interleave option.

Since when a cable-connection. can offer interleaving skull? interleaving is a feature of dsl (avoids errors). Disabled interleaving = Fastpath.
SInce there is nothing to disable on cable to make connection faster, there is no fastpath on cable. It has such an latency by nature.

so then cable rocks 
might upgrade to 20 mb costs an extra £12 a month thinks its worth it.

no cable is not good, just because interleaving doesn’t apply, doesn’t mean is hasn’t a shit load of its own probs
