30M : R38 ain't so good

[alferret]

Getting back to the issues I had last month with R38.
The TBB graph remained "normal" for a week then started to get a lot of latency, reboot modem it goes away and starts to creep back again after a few days.
here are some graphs over the last few days!

On the first graph we had a power outage so in effect it was reset Friday.

Would love to get to the bottom of this.

Looking to revive this thread to see if I can get a bit further than I did on VM's forums (although I did forget all about it for a while cause I suffer from old aged forgetfulness )

This is my live graph http://www.thinkbroadband.com/ping/s...46ff54a82.html
Never had an issue on R37, only became apparent on R38.
Should I push for SHUB2?
Don't have an option to connect in modem mode be it with a router or direct to PC/Laptop.

I rebooted the modem on 7/10/13


Then on 8/10 it was like this, as you can see its starting to creep up...


9/10 it was its usual self....


Now 13/10 - 14/10 its solid latency all the way



As you can appreciate gaming is impossible, speed tests come back like this
Milton Keynes


From VM's own servers just down the road to me


And from Sheffield

Now there is a surprise

Considering its 2am congestion should be minimal especially to Nottingham.

Idea's, thoughts and suggestions welcome

I'm going to reboot modem, test same servers for speed and see if owt changes.

This is trhe discussion thread in the VM forum that researched the phenomenon.

And this is how it is now.




Go figure! Nothing changed apart from IP after I switched it off for 10 minutes or so while I move position of the box. First IP change in months (at least 6)

If you have a new IP you need to setup a new graph for the new IP, if thats not the problem it looks like your router isn't allowing ping from the WAN.

[alferret]

Yup set up new graph no other settings have been changed.

Check again, your router is not responding to pings. Either that or you have no connection at all.
