Ping times to Hub3 are abysmal
I don't know how long this has been going on for, but I've definitely noticed performance issues with my connection for a while now, gradually getting worse to the point where I have to actually do something about it..
Throughput seems okay, but latency is naff and packets are being dropped. The thing is, it's happening at the Hub, before it even gets to the CMTS. Code:
Tracing route to 192.168.100.1 over a maximum of 30 hops Code:
Tracing route to bbc.co.uk [151.101.0.81] https://www.cableforum.uk/images/local/2020/09/1.png And as I said, throughput is fine when something works, I can get near full speeds on speedtest.net - it takes a while to get going but when it does, it's fine. I've not seen something like this before, has anyone else and got any idea on what would fix it? Rebooting the hub makes it a little better but not by much. It's currently running in modem mode. I've not tried factory resetting yet, that'll be my next port of call but it's a bit of a faff so I'll have to do it later. |

I would take your router out of the equation and see if that fixes it.

Re: Ping times to Hub3 are abysmal
So, update on this one:
Removing my router didn't make any real difference. I spoke to an agent on the phone, who made me pinhole reset the hub. things improved a fair bit, but ping times are still poor to the hub - 2-3ms locally with the occasional spike to 15ms+. I admit I've never pinged the hub much from this side of the network so I have no idea if its always like that. It'll do for now. I did get frustrated at the agent, who claimed that there was a "Network instability" but then said that there's nothing else she could do as there's "no fault". I asked how can there be no fault if there's network instability, but it was like talking to a brick wall: "There's no fault" "Okay but I have an issue" "Yes" "And it's on Virgin's side" "Yes" "So there's a fault" "no" :facepalm: I have to wait 48 hours before pushing it any further. It'll probably just do for now until I can get rid of Virgin. |

This is what I get to our SH3 via the router:

Ah, so looks like the Hub3 is just hot garbage then. No surprises there really.
They just need to roll out gig1 to me already. |

Hub 4.0 aint much better when it comes to ping times and jitter. |

Kushan is commenting on ping time from PC - Hub, nothing inbetween. Your graph shows ping time from TBB's servers through extenal routing to VM's network and routing to the hub which can have 10-30 routers involved inbetween. |

Was adding my 2 cents the the Hub 4.0 isn't any better than the 3.0 So climb down off the high horse. |
Re: Ping times to Hub3 are abysmal
I appreciate the comments. I know the hub4 uses the same chipset with the same issues, but I believe it's clocked much higher which sort of...gets around those issues a little.

Edit It does look like Puma7 may have the issue too, if so what the hell is VM thinking of! Saying that I don't have any issues with my hub 3. |
Re: Ping times to Hub3 are abysmal
I think it's more what the hell are Arris thinking of.

Re: Ping times to Hub3 are abysmal
They don't know their Arris from their elbow.
I'm here all week. |
