Re: Time to SORT the network NTL
 

[QUOTE=Ignition]

If the network were 'falling apart' I'd expect to see slow performance as well as drops, and those drops to last longer as modem loses synch outright rather than a brief connection stall.

Harlow is falling apart then?

Thanks very much, I forgot about that:dunce: Bit slow today, got too much snow in meh ears;)

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

I take it that the email servers are borked again?

Unable to receive ANY emails...

:(

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

Well with more and more people at NTL that actually know what they are doing getting the chop things can only go downhill from here.

Tuftus read the server status page its been ongoing for a couple of days now, link is at the bottom of the page.

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

I gave up on NTL's email and news service years ago

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

/rant ON

For the love of god!!!!

Even "lesser" ISP's managed to get at least the email right.... What the hell is the issue?

I have never known an ISP with SUCH a shoddy email service.

My 2p

/rant OFF

Re: Time to SORT the network NTL
 

Wouldn't surprise.

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

defenition of faulty network?

core network failing or....

many poor performing ubr's how many? only ntl know
slow and unreliable email server's
unreliable proxy server's
and today ntl webserver down

I think the topic is justified.

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

I think some poor over worked service tech was probably miffed and over indulged in the "percussive maintenance" ie whacked the crap out of some poor defenseless, unresisting box of electronics. :disturbd:

Re: Time to SORT the network NTL
 

Thanks BBKing PM sent with the mac number.





Thanks Igni I havent got a 8dB forward path attenuator it was remnoved years ago

:confused: DTV I have a SACM no DTV I use shhhh :erm: sky


Tonight has been much better none since 4.30pm

Downstream Receive Power Level : 7.61 dBmv
Downstream SNR : 32.83 dB
Upstream Transmit Power Level : 43.00 dBmv

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

Chrysalis, firstly a 's is applied to a word only to describe possession, IE this John's uBR sucks ass, and an extra s is only applied where the existing word doesn't end in an s. OR as a contraction of 'it is' - it's, and other contractions of 'xx is'

Pluralising a word doesn't require an apostrophe in front of the s.

Sorry to those not interested in that stuff, just reading crap punctuation and grammar does eventually get boring and is a testament to the **** poor standards of our schooling.

Poor performing uBRs, none, poor performing up/downstreams very few, yours is a huge exception requiring costly upgrades due to the **** poor quality of the original build.

Unreliable proxy servers, think most would say these are far far less common than they used to be and 99.x% of the time are now fine.

The webserver, how often has it been down exactly?

Email servers - have these not dramatically improved, recent events being an exception to this?

Core network - hardly falling apart, considerably less than 30% utilised, massively resilient using quality hardware, a superior network to BT's Colossus, not exactly a hunk of junk?

Might be worth finding it, quite plausible that the network has been fixed and tuned and that's why you need it back! I was concerned at your power levels going lower at one point however the reason for that (which I'm not going into as it involves composite second order distortion and more predominately composite triple beats) has been resolved, as evidenced by your SNR increasing with increased power levels.

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

Yes, I have noticed that the spelling and grammar of members is getting worse. A fair few of the new posters must have all gone to the same school as they suffer from the same mistakes in both areas. A few of the more long standing members must also have gone to the same school which must have a different dictionary to the rest of us. Maybe Incognitas should ask for a transfer there to whip them into shape. :) :)

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

O_o sorry for the bad grammar :)

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

Can't find it Igni it was taken away by NTL engineer.

Re: Time to SORT the network ntl
 

Seems a shame nobody knows how to configure it correctly then :sleep:
