Mine hasn't been too bad since network maintenance on the 4th though I wish the minimum latency was a smooth as it was before they added bonded upstreams in December.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

The fact your minimum latency changes so often indicatea a fault of some kind imo

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

it'll probably start to rise. keep an eye on it. something similar to mine...

Just about all TBB's on a dual VM upstream now show the same minimum latency variation and have done since day one of the 2nd upstream channel being added.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

I don't agree, Kymmy. The perturbations shouldn't be happening. Many, if not most of the TBBs on 2 upstreams that I've noticed have stable minimum latency. Here's mine:

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

Not something I had noticed. Good to know though.

So there can be a few ms difference between ping results depending on which of the 2 upstreams the ping reply returns on?

If this is the case, is it wrong to assume both upstreams should give the same results?

They look so different to my own connection that any variation looks 'off':

I get the uneven minimum latency while on 2 upstream channels but only when i use the connection, when i am not online it is flat.

didnt you have the rise/instability issue when you was away Snoopy

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

That was a different issue over Christmas, and after a modem reboot that eventually went away. :)

its all linked to the same issue Snoopz

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

Interesting point. Without double checking my DOCSIS 3 theory, my instinct tells me that the ping packet will be fragmented in both directions and thus be split across channels.

But if these 32 byte packets go down on channel and randomly move to the other, then my instinct suggests that different latencies wouuld account for those perturbations.

A brainio that knows more on this subject would be helpful here.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

You know more than me in this area but my train of thought is first surprise that packets of that size would get fragmented across two channels, and secondly that even if they returned on different upstreams/different frequencies, the difference in times should be less than a millisecond unless one of the channels is close to capacity. With the fluctuations being consistent i doubt that is the case. So yeah, need someone who actually knows rather than our guesses.

Any comments would be appreciated on what my graph is saying

It's saying you have a connection problem.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

Interesting that your minimum and average latency don't increase, even when you have the packet loss. That suggests that you instantly lose your connection every time this happens.

Might be indicative of an iffy amplifier in the area?
