That's not a current snapshot, Phil. Was last night the same?

The one I posted earlier was from Sat/Sun overnight.

Something definitely going on 2am-4am

Live graph below.

Modem mode from last week.
Drop off at the end was when the SH was replaced for Wi-Fi issues.

^^ I wish my graph was that good, it used to be but since around Christmas it has looked trashy. Could be just since the relaxation and then removal of DS traffic management leading to congestion as speeds have taken a hit on some evenings, once it went as low as 55Mb.

Late last year:

Phil, You got anything on your LAN that does stuff every half hour? Like a NAS?

Yes, but I disconnected everything last night.

Im also not aware the NAS does anything to be fair.

I also have major issues with iPlayer on Tivo stuttering all the time too.

The NAS question was a start of probing whether you had a PC application running in the background kicking in according to parameter setting. That would then occupy the LAN which would be handled by the router, interrupting TBB just like speed tests do.

The stuttering - is that when viewing via a wired device on your LAN or is it to the TV?

Anyone else see a lift in latency at around 10:30pm last night?

Nothing is on on the LAN during the night, except the NAS that "shouldnt" be doing anything!

TV stuttering is on the Tivo iPlayer app, connected via the internal modem or connected to my LAN makes no difference. Lots of chatter about this issue on here and on the VM forums about it.

Phil

My Tivo iPlayer on Full HD doesn't stutter. So that's likely to be down to local conditions. Would you agree?

As for the NAS, from my distant perspective, it seems you have told me that the NAS is isolated on the LAN at night. I don't want to send you on a wild goose chase, but I recall that about a year ago there was a similar phenomenon reported and it was diagnosed the NAS was polling out. So perhaps switching it off for a night might reveal something useful.

OK maybe, but the graph on modem mode is much cleaner. (and thats with a cheapo TP link router).

Tivo issues are escalated within VM now and I will be leaving if they are not sorted this week (still in 28 day period).

Modem mode is good and if you can stay on that I recommend you do.

Yes I know I was like that a few years ago when with Virgin before.

I have been hammering the Wi-Fi by copying a huge (50Gb+) folder from my laptop to the NAS for the last couple of hours, I see no effect on the ping graph.

I see the latency from last night had fixed itself too, must have been some routing issues in the network?

No change on my graph. Must be a routing thing?
