Re: Less packet loss when torrenting... Wut?

Hi all,

Thanks for your responses.

My modem hasn't been reset since I started the ping the test and I have double checked that I'm still on the same IP.

For the last few months I have had 20-30% packet loss every night without fail and I'm certain it's down to a UBR fault, though this could mean that it may not be true so I thought I should double check there is nothing else I can do on my computer before I continue my rage at VM.

Any geniuses have a clue why my modem would respond to more ping requests when my utilisation is higher?

I'll try it again tonight to see if it wasn't a coincidence, it just doesn't seem like it is because as I said I have been getting a steady 20-30% packet every night.

Cheers,

Dan
