Yesterday after being booted from BBO a couple of times, I noticed that the half-eaten double-beef whopper sitting on its side was flickering (in the Magenta box).
Does this estimate the quality of the connection to the BBO Server?

Just like on a cellphone.

Anything less than constant four bars should be treated as a failing grade.

That's what I was wondering, But the beefy comestible on my phone and computer are both consistently 4 layered.

Since you're in Australia and our servers are all in the US, it's not surprising that you sometimes have fewer than 4 bars. It takes time for the network packets to get halfway around the world.

Thanks for that - I didn't realise that the BBO network connectivity would be separate from my Australian wireless signal strength.
