Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Its just my ping time has gone down not up on the chart...( when not seeding Kubuntu )



was expecting the load to VM networks to increase as there are now less choice in peering access... or does it not work that way.

Peers in torrents has nothing to do with peering in networks.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Ok so you don't know why the ping time has dropped instead of increasing even though there are now LESS peering links to share the load now that Virgin media Turned the Broken Peering links OFF.

Its OK you can POST you have no IDEA why the ping is now Quicker/Lower than it was when there were lots of peering links provided buy VM. Now that they turned off 2 Peering providers links to fix download problems on there network...

Its OK I was just expecting Ping to get higher now that there is less room on there networks as they have shut network pipes down.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Have they shut down any peering links on the TBB path? Do you think displaced traffic is hotting the TBB path? Or have I misunderstood you?

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Thats what I came here to find out, Kinda suprised, no body here seam to know anything about this.
Was expecting lots of Overloaded peering links and users complaining about increased load on there graph.
But it seams to have drawn a complete blank...
And my ping has gone down on the graph not up.

What on earth are you on about.

You've stopped seeding. Load on your line has gone down. Therefore latency has gone down.

What has VM peering links got to do with your torrent seeding?!

OK... So? What has that got do do with you?

Why? Unless the network is at 100% load there should be no change in ping whatsoever.

On the other hand, VM prefer to use slower, cheaper links by default so by switching them off traffic is forced onto faster, more expensive paths.

Nonetheless VM has dozens if not hundreds of peering links. What on earth makes you think changes to 1% of their network would have any noticeable effect on your torrents?

Nobody seems to know anything because nothing you say makes any sense.

Why would you expect that?!

I was expecting pigs to fly and explode and drop winning lottery tickets. Nobody seems to know anything about why that didn't happen either...

You've already said why yourself.

Ping goes down when you are not seeding torrents because you are not seeding torrents.

Looking at your TBB/BQM I suspect that there is some colateral 10/GBe and core upgrades also required before you get full 120/12 rollout?

BT Infinity didn't come at a good time compared to my contract ending and a few people in my area had some problems with it. Definitely planning to change end of contract this time though or even sooner if possible, downloading and gaming especially are literally impossible at any time of the day.

Any recommendations apart from Infinity or would that be one of the best options?

My money is on Sky fibre, but Infinity do seem good, only reason I say Sky is that Ive got it and it's excellent.

Re: Think Broadband Ping Monitor Results (POST YOURS)
Another +1 on Sky fibre over here, although BT infinity does look equally as good. Plusnet is also meant to be fairly good if you are on a lower budget
