[Merged] Major connection issues! 6/6/06
:Yikes: Hello all.
I'm currently on NTL 10meg, Or so I thought! Anyway since around saturday, I've been having very bad connection problems for example, Some sites wont load (this site takes 10 minutes!) & I cannot do anything, It's not my computer or router, cleared the cache.. refreshed etc... Non of it makes any difference, I contacted by brother who is also on NTL (4meg though) & he is having the same issues (he lives 10 houses away) Anyway, can anyone tell me if they are having any issues within the area! Thanks! :Yikes: :mad: |

Same here da1 area, lost the connection on saturday 13/05 and again on 20/05 both times at 16.10pm.
I am also on up to 10meg, rang ts both times, told first time that the problem was with the green street box and that my s/n was to high, second time told by a very nice indian gentleman that my modem had died and that he coudnt run any tests on it. Arranged for an engineer to call between 12-6pm today(monday), connection returned at 5pm saturday, so much for a dead modem!! |

I've been having problems on the 2Mb connection in the Cardiff area late at night... sites not found, very slow loading, etc.

Re: Major connection issue! (Tamworth & lichfield)
Having the same problems in last 24-48 hours. Doing traceroutes to say BBC, and others, looks like packets being lost left right and centre Tracing route to www.bbc.net.uk [212.58.224.118] over a maximum of 30 hops: Code:
Speed is worst since I began using 10 Mb service. Almost as slow as Dial-up!! Anyone else know a reason, because as usual, nothing posted on the service status page. |
Re: Major connection issue! (Tamworth & lichfield)
I'd speculate reason for your extremely poor service is the link here:
3 9 ms 9 ms 17 ms brhm-t2cam1-a-v121.inet.ntl.com [213.106.228.117] 4 * 30 ms * brhm-t2core-a-ge-wan61.inet.ntl.com [213.106.231 As ntl in their infinite wisdom don't monitor packet loss, and as India tends not to have the skill / willingness to spot these issues or the contacts to report them it's a bit screwy and these things don't get noticed for ages. Seems fine at the moment though, no packet loss to there at all so guess someone noticed. 24 - 48 hours to spot it is gack though :( |
Re: Major connection issue! (Tamworth & lichfield)
Just had the engineer come out, informed that there is a promblem with the ubr's in da1 area, work being done tonight to rectify the problem, we will wait and see!!!

Re: Major connection issue! (Tamworth & lichfield)
Speed seems to have been restored. Just tried traceroute again, and no more lost packets.
