This is a few months old, but it hasn't changed much:

Code:

This is the reverse from a VPS in London (again a bit old):

Code:

...snipped...

Keep in mind I live in zone 3 southwest London and my traffic is going via Sheffield...

Also - I get the same gap between blue/yellow as Chrysalis, which is a bit weird. Didn't get it on Be using the same router (Billion 7800N). Could be down to EWAN vs ADSL on the router but in reality probably not, more mystery BT network shenanigans!

Chrysalis · 21-12-2012, 13:40

these first hops on BT without rdns are very annoying when doing traceroutes from a windows machine as windows waits 5 seconds on those hops. So now I do my FTTC traceroutes on my router as that doesnt pause when no rdns.

I see driz got round it by adding the ips to hosts file

qasdfdsaq · 22-12-2012, 06:44

Yeah you're right, that is funny BT routing.

That said the routing may be the cause of the extra blueness, if different packets come back different ways and therefore take different times. I do tend to find a lot of flapping around on my BT "routing".

Feeling guilty having such a nice connection while reading about all the others in my area who are having major issues on Virgin

qasdfdsaq · 07-01-2013, 10:41

Pfft. I gloat a bit in the same situation.

Chrysalis · 07-01-2013, 11:52

I am using the hosts trick now also

Code:

Only 9 Hops from my connection. There really should be at least 2 less in yours too, strange how they have routed at the start.

The plusnet graph is looking nice. How are you finding it?

Managed to get a little blue in my graph today :P

craigj2k12 · 23-01-2013, 16:07

All the plusnet graphs seems to show utilisation at peak time each night

qasdfdsaq · 23-01-2013, 17:57

And Virgin Media graphs don't?

Not at peak no, at all times

Qtx · 23-01-2013, 23:03

Getting excited here, actually got a little peak which is out of the ordinary.

Unusually I downloaded 40gb today, which used to be my monthly combined usage. Those downloads are the long yellow rises though.

Mick Fisher · 24-01-2013, 15:34

Pretty much as per usual here.

The spikes at 6pm are me downloading, the long yellow rise at 2pm is me downloading 8hrs of HD catchup TV off on demand via iPlayer.

In fact your graph actually makes mine look bad!
