Plus a lovely bit of downtime at about 6ish. Probably me just downloading crap, though.

Probably a routing configuration at NCUK/TBB. Nothing to do with VM.

Normally I would agree with what you say, however at the two blips, Twitter went crazy with people complaining. On top of that, everyone I was playing with on Xbox Live at the time got kicked off if they were on VM.

Well I said probably. As it affected several different ISPs in several different countries, it certainly isn't a VM issue. Nothwithstanding the fact there could easily have been multiple isolated issues occurring on the same night and what you're seeing is an entirely different problem to what I'm seeing.

Luckily not mine either, got rid of Virgin a month or so ago after many months of packetloss. Seems everyone in the area is still having problems going by that graph and others I have seen.

Apart from the packetloss I would say yours was much worse simply due to the minimum latency. That is a HUGE hump!

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 
Yeah but packet loss is worse. An average latency of 50-150ms is normal on 3G and still perfectly usable.

Well yeah, but neither are good for gaming online and I would suspect there would also be issues with streaming, voip on all the virgin connections shown above.

What amazed me was about 2 years ago someone in the CEO office at virgin trying to tell me that 15% packet loss was a perfectly acceptable amount for a home connection.

I was actually quite able to game online, even FPS games that didn't have lag compensation on a ~60ms 3G line. It's inconsistency that's the problem.
