Hi Michael,
I don't have a direct answer to your question, nor can I speak for other
gaming companies, but I can certainly work with you off-list on ways to
monitor connectivity and performance to our game, "League of Legends".
Hopefully also find some ways to optimise routing between our networks.
Happy to assist any other network also - it's great to see gaming appearing
on more and more radars.
