Thought I'd give this a try, this is what I got today ;

I was advised to give it a couple of weeks before responding. It has disappeared before so the fault number was cleared, then BINGO the fault came back.

Swapped over to a Hub 3.0 earlier on. Apart from the spikes, looks ok.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
I'm having a few issues with my BB output, it's has though a page will hang for about 5-10 seconds before then quickly downloading all the required info. Sometimes when I'm listening to online radio (TMS for example it will stop and pick up again)...
I don't think there's much wrong showing here... https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2016/10/12.png ..but I did notice it being a lot slower during peak time last night, which I think it to be expected. Another thing since I changed my Superhub to 'Respond to ICMP echo requests sent to WAN IP' the IP address on my Tivo has changed from a 192.***.*.* to now 169.***.***.*** and I cannot not control the Tivo using the mobile app or VM TiVo Net Remote for my PC. I'm presuming it's since I updated my superhub settings because I was able to use the app to remotely control the TiVO prior to that change. I notice the TiVo network settings has an option for creating a static IP address but did not want to mess with this until I know for sure this is what I need to do, as my IP was static before at 192.***.*.* Any ideas to get the app working again, or is it just a matter or unticking the superhub Respond to ICMP echo requests sent to WAN IP option. |

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
ja, just a few things to clarify for the future dude:
A 192.168.x.x address is a local address assigned by the router. Even if you haven't got internet access, the fact that you have got a local address means the router is up and running and you are connected to your local area network and will be able to communicate with other devices on the network (e.g. stream content from a server to a tv). When a device gets a 169.254.x.x address that is a private address (APIPA) which the device itself assigns to make itself feel better so it thinks it has an ip address and when this happens you have no network connectivity at all. From a troubleshooting perspective you would firstly look at the router to see if it is up, then look at other devices to see if their network connection is up (and if it is) then you start looking at the one device which isn't connected and check cables, network settings etc. |
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Appears as though it might be peak usage slowdown I'm experiencing. I'm using the internet now 6am and it's flying, pages are loading instantly. Maybe the demand is just getting too much for Virgin to handle at peak times. I've noticed a considerable decline in the user experience when browsing t'net at peak times.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
As I said on the VM forum, it is indeed counter-intuitive that the lower BQM shoould represent a satisfactory service. That said, if you are doing stuff over the 24 hours, then that will hinder the low priority BQM pings and thus you might be satisfied with performance.
As a matter of interest, what model hub do you have? |

Hi, has anyone seen this before. My usual graph is like this.
https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2017/01/14.png At just before midnight the hub and TV lost signal, so I checked the hub stats which are no different than usual. Checking my ping graph now and it looks like this. https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2017/01/15.png I see this started yesterday at about 3am. There are only 12 DS and 2 US channels in my area. |
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Is this good or bad.
Service 200M, 20 Channels Hub 3 (Modem mode) with Asus RT-N56UB1 router Problems I am having are, can't listen to internet radio, but can on my VM mobile on 3G, possible gaming issues on both Xbox One and PS4 https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2017/01/13.jpg http://f8luresig.mouselike.org/sig.png?/57620.png |
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
In my opinion, the BQM is poor. based on my own service, your BQM should show green at 15ms or less and blue at 18ms or thereabouts.
|
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Just wondered what people think of these graphs.
I'm on 200Mb with the hub 3. The other day it went down and it turned out that VM were working in the area, we were on 16 down and 2 up and after the work we are now on 24 down and 2 up. The graphs seem to have got worse since they did the work. Today (5/2/17) https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2017/02/33.png Friday (3/2/17) https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2017/02/33.png Day of the work (2/2/17) https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2017/02/33.png Day before work (1/2/17) https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2017/02/33.png |

Pretty normal graphs for most people with a Hub3 with the odd exception(Sephiroth). The reason you have gained more yellow is from the increase in downstream channels, I am on 16 but i always feel it doesnt affect my browsing or gaming. |
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/...2017/02/29.png
I have 20 DS channels. The main difference between yours and mine is that your average latency is much higher than mine. Whether or not that's due to my having 4 US channels, I don't know for sure. My recollection is that when I got my hub 3 in January 2016, I still had 2 US channels and the average latency was the same. |
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Cheers for the replies. Just wanted to check how normal it was. For some reason I thought adding more DS channels would help the graph look better rather than worse.
|
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Ordinarily it would. But there is a quirk in the Hub 3 processor (which I am told will be fixed by eentbual firmware change), whereby housekeeping interrupt occurs too frequently, thus impacting latency.

Yep if this keeps happening might have to order an ADSL line to maintain decent latency :-( (No FTTC here it's ADSL2+ or VM)

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)

This seems to be the "main" one http://community.virginmedia.com/t5/...M/td-p/3357333 |
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
I'm assuming something has failed somewhere, because early hours of the third at like 3am there was multiple disconnections on my VM connection and the same dropouts were happening on a friends VM connection in London and also another friends VM up north. One hosts an MC server and all players were dropping out for around an hour before it settled. Some sites were inaccessible etc.
I'm assuming that the load has been rerouted and it's showing up as congestion on our ping graphs but also in some real world usage too, my connection to my VPN right now is running 60ms. |
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
What's going on here then?
No activity at my end could be causing this. No obvious effect on speed test result. Ping is high though.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
It seems they are fiddling with the network today (maybe they are fixing the hump issue) because I've had several cutouts where sites were inaccessible. Everyone's ping graphs are showing this, with some showing steps in min latency.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
I'm not sure why I'm getting these episodes of packet loss or apparent disconnection. The SH3 config file has not changed nor has the software version, so I am assuming a temporary or developing fault. Those latency spikes are not due to activity at this end either.
I see that others are getting similar issues. What is VM playing at? https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2017/03/5.png |
Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Looks like an issue further into the network with the amount of customers seeing the same thing.
Virgin still not even acknowledged this new round of random packet loss |
