Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

Sorry I see no loss, or high pings to speak of to the last hop on the trace. If you have nothing better to do on December 21st than run endless traceroutes to try and find issues that's your prerogative. I do :)

As has been mentioned to me you may not be conversant with these technologies.

So...

Tracing route to pear.nildram.net [195.149.20.145]
over a maximum of 30 hops:

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

If the information is not of use to you am sorry its just i have not even been able to ping to local ubr at times.
The time get on it is like someone has put a proxy in the system .
Pages not loading unresponsive connection .

Then its ok am lost again we had similar problems earlier this year remember you and Bill saying local issue. That was sorted by adjustment of the network levels

Could it be similar

I have been dead happy up till now see the ping to the ubr from yesterday 138ms could that be a levels problem
Come on guys these are the results

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

If that is the case and you are sure you have a problems then report it to faults. Phone them its better than Email.

If they can see a problems as well then they should send out a Network Tech. :)


My and Igs point is that the trace routes you have posted dont show any problems apart from 1 ot 2 slow routers.


???

I was after your and igs advice on this

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

If i was getting speeds tp the ubr like this then i would start to get worried.

This is more like it. the last lot did not show anything was wrong. This does. Get on the phone :)

you have a local issue by the look of these

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

Thanks bill just managed to get on again to the site.
I have reported it but its india dealing with it

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

Will see if i can contact the Network lads for your area tomorrow. if i cannot get them before Friday thats it .


I leave NTL on Friday :hyper:

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

thenegineer your trace's are just about the best I have seen from an ntl connection, how are you getting more then 3 latency figures to show on each hop?

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

Nice to see someone else see's that as well :)

got a new version of ping plotter note loss

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

Certainly wasn't oversubbed, and I wouldn't worry about that loss at all. If connection is fine there's no issue.

You are scaring me with this obsession with ping plotter and indeed your ongoing obsession with your connection, but nonetheless if the loss on your report doesn't show on other hops there's no issue.

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

Your getting into my english:D the ping plotter was suggested to check the local UBR by a NTL Senior Engineer for this area .

I was told a few months ago that NTL have a few network local issues in this area.
Somnething to do with weather datastreams and balancing

So told to check the connection with ping plotter to local UBR.
As its that bit thats liable to be the problem the route to UBR.

Thanks for checking UBR ign appreciated.

Suppose it will not improve much more improved with Pace2000 then improved with Samsung box.

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

Ok my ubr is fine as confirmed by bbking so check this trace from ping plotter, please dont have a cardiac arrest th'engineer.

Re: [Merged] Manchester Issues
 

Has anyone in Manchester got 10mbps yet, i was told they were performing hardware updates and they would only guarantee 3mb up until this date which to be fair they have.

Although it is now the 24th and still on 3mbs. :(
