now here is a trace on my cable to london 100mbit server I have.

as you can see numbers all over the place so because of the ubr cant diagnose anything from it, but speeds are normal download, and upload is almost normal with tiny blips in graph.

the return path

in this case there is 1 spike on hop 8 but it looks a one off and hops 9 and 10 were not affected, hop 4 looks to be configured to simply have icmp as low priority. This server itself isnt giving me latency issues so there is nothing wrong other then the ubr problem I posted above.

To scopeuk sure I will crontab at 3am and echo it to a file so I have the results ready to post.
