well I agree with qas, it doesnt go down instant like the flick of a switch description says.

it goes down in a sharp slope, the pattern expected from peak time traffic easing congestion.

Apologies it was just a figure of speech, will update the thread once I have an update from VM. :)

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

Your along way from East Anglia so it's expected.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

true but i still go via Guildford (x2) and nrth-bb-1b-ae4-0.network.virginmedia.net [212.43.163.178]

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

Yeah, I hadn't seen the graph, I would agree with qasi now about it being congestion of some kind.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

Is it usual for such a large geographic area to be hit by congestion though? What I find strange is how its just started happening suddenly.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

It will likely clear up suddenly too i hope.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

I will let you know once I have an update from the support forum mate.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

Have you got a link to the post and i will add some weight to it if it is on the VM forum?

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
 

well as stated, you're both routing through the same node at some point so yeah, it's no unexpected. It's entirely possible that there's a fault there, this can be known to cause a significant drop in available bandwidth as the modulation drops down - but I've only ever seen that on the customer end.
