Mines still pretty much the same:
Big red line is when the kettle tripped the RCD :/

My god, it's just so pwetty with all the red and yellow...and I hate virgin so much right now! Can't wait to see if these 'fixes' tomorrow do anything.

Any idea why there is so much packet loss without the latency spikes being much worse? Mine looks pretty similar to yours but I don't see anywhere near so much loss. Could it be because I downgraded to 10 on DOCSIS3? I don't really understand how it could.

Mine is looking OK same as before my 100mbit upgrade really. Well OKish on a Virgin connection...

what is honestly causing all of these latency spikes?

Using Qasi's graph as an example, what would cause it to be brilliant approaching 4pm, 6pm and 7:30 till around 9:30, and then rubbish the rest of the time even during the night? Something is seriously bodged with Virgin Media.

That was two months ago. This is now.

Using the Network causes Slow down on mine, you can use it to see When you or others put Load on the network.
For me It shows When Leeches took all off my upload from Kubuntu 12.04 torrent on Ktorrent. 3am-10pm Currently up to 5.06GB uploaded in just 2 days,
[img]Download Failed (1)[/img]
or when and if the PS3 booted due to PS+ to Auto download with the 10am spike.

I'm seeing similar packet loss to parts of Edinburgh, it would appear to be something wrong on VM's core network as pinging the CMTS from off-net also shows abnormally high latency and packet loss.

I know what the TBB graph is for and what it does... of course using all of your upload especially through a torrent will affect latency and give you packet loss as a result. Someone else doing the same thing on your segment wouldn't produce the same results on your graph, it takes more than a few users to increase the average latency for other people. The fact is, the network shouldn't spike like it does on an almost constant basis in the range of 20-40ms or more for other people.

There is no reasonable explanation for the constant spikes in latency, even in the very early hours of the morning when the usage on the network is very low, which is why i was asking Qasi (well i wasn't directly but i thought he may answer) if he had any knowledgeable theories on why.

local upstream SNR issues

Yuck. Different problem to what's causing the poop on my graphs then, Edinburgh seems to have been shot to hell since I left, odd since at the time it had only just fixed after 16 months of crawling.
